mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted September 10, 2016 The first and only set we used just went half way. We had them make an extension for us to get them up all the way. They still haven't changed their design yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a problem at all I think it peaks at 3ish inches but I need to get him to measure it.. I'm thinking we will get atleast 5 inches more of clearance from top of motor to top of hood(scoop). Thank ya! 1 SextKecy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

69Mustang16 92 Report post Posted September 26, 2016 Nice Color! Bet you can't wait to see it painted. How are you going to paint the hood, 1/2 red & black or what??? Thanks! You would be right about that haha.. We are still trying to decide.. Thought about the scoop being painted black with rest of hood red, thought about a big single stripe, 2 stripes, etc etc.. We will come up with something when the time comes :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
