no i would leave it my g/f and i gave her dad our 03 mustang and 90 5.0 for the trans am and parts(ex. hood and rims and wat not) its silver so we want a carbon hood with black rims with chrome lips its so damn hard to find one(hood)

Probably don't want my opinion on a non-painted CF hood. :lol:


Good luck. Are you looking for a basic T/A CF hood or a CF WS.6 hood???

ws6 or stalker wat ever. if i cant find one she will proably paint it black we have our own body shop so it wouldnt be a problem. and all opinions on any thing are welcome i just want it to look bad ass we spent alot on the 03 mustang(rims, exhaust,intake,stripes,1200+on interior..etc)and plan on doing the same to this car so any opinion will help

I did really minor appearance mods to my WS.6 and I think it looks badass. Doesn't stand out too much, but enough to know it isn't stock.
Wheels, suspension, blacked out the side markers, some minor interior things.

i like the car(yours) but my g/f insist on her car looking her way lol. but we almost had ws6 like yours exept it had corvette rimes on it im think c06 or something like that looked bad(meaning good).we already ordered the rims so all we need now is the hood. oh a btw off subject will my msd 6plus digital msd box and high voltage coil(hvc) make a diff in performance (if u kno)

I think there was someone a while ack that had a ws6 one and painted it black like the rest of the car but left the 'nostrils' not painted leaving the carbon fiber look there. i think it looked pretty good but idk about leaving the whole hood

Thank goodness. I was about to chime in on what I thought of carbon fiber hoods as well. :angel:

I really don't know if I like having a hood one solid color and the rest of the car another solid color. Looks a little ricey in my opinion. I've seen some that have accent work done or stuff like the birds and they look really sharp.

That's the first one I've seen of the titan hood, that looks pretty nice. I like the raptor and outlaw hoods also, though they're real close to the WS6 hood (probably why I like them so much - I'm biased).

You did say you both traded your vehicles for that one, right? So technically it's both of yours, not just hers. You should have some say in what it looks like as well. ;)
