[FocusSTGuy]

So I was out taking pics of the car today and was wondering what you guys think of cowl hoods. Would you do it to:

I am looking at the Cervinis prepainted 4" or Cobra R style...what do you think?

 

[GrabUblue]

4" looks too big imo. Cobra R pure sex! I just can't justify the cost.

 

[Scott8583]

^^^^ I agree! 4" is too big, Cobra R's look bad ass! The down side is the cost and they'er actually a couple pounds heavier then stock. I don't like the louvered hoods on the 13,14's so I'd go for it!

I heard people have had problems with the pre painted hoods getting damaged or scratched during shipping. Your probably better off getting a un painted one. Have it fitted on the car and painted locally.

I agree on the cobra r hood. It's the one I really want!!!

 

[Justin81]

Scott, what don't you don't like about the louvers on the stock hood?

[SHIFTYBUSINESS]

Very nice!

 

[RIPN]

Love my Cobra R hood.

I'm not big on cowl hoods, but damn that Cobra R is a sexy ass hood!

4" looks killer IMO.

Have a cobra r on mine and now wish I had something more aggressive looking. Like the trucarbon one

 

[Big Q]

I decided to go with the Harwood 3" imo it's just right, I'll try and upload a pic later when I'm not at work...

Nay

Do a lower grille delete first and dump the honeycomb.

 

[kdaly]

Pickles, that hood looks freaking amazing

I've been in the same boat, looking at hoods for my 13. The big cowls don't fit to me for anything more than a track car. The cobra R is nice, the cervini's ram air IV is pretty good looking as well. What sucks is that there aren't many options on the 13-14 style, and they are all $1k plus after paint and install. And shipping a hood is like playing Russian roulette

shipping a hood UPS is like playing Russian Roulette with only 1 chamber empty
