Well....I wanted a new hood anyway May 03, 2007, 07:24:32 AM Seems the curse is still with me. I took the Mustang to work last night only to have someone I work with back into it with the spare tire on the back of his Jeep. He hit deadcenter and creased it, so there is no good way to fix it without using filler. Price of stock Ford hood $577Price of Steeda stage 2 cowl hood $629http://www.steeda.com/products/steeda_ultralite_full_cowl_induction_hood.phpPrice of paint for new Steeda hood....Who knows? I guess my co-worker will be working some overtime as he wishes to not go through insurance. I already ordered the Steeda hood. I'm getting an estimate for paint at 9am. Quote Selected
