ShelbyEra08 Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 i was looking at KR style hoods from Trufiber and cervini, to me they are decent but not really close. it looks like that the hood vents are to far in and if i lay down stripes on the hood the vents get in the way. I like the GT500KR hood vents wouldnt get in the way. So does anyone know a GT500KR style hood that has vents that wont get in the way of stripes?

89Saleen215 Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Yes, a KR hood I used a TruFiber piece and it's nice, but it's still not the OEM KR hood. PM Sent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporDude Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 I used the KR style hood from Trufiber on my 08 and it looked great. You can get the stripes from FarmDog (John Farmer at StuckOnYouGraphics.com). He and I worked closely to get the stripes done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's something like BMH.com, or BM something dot come. It's BMC...

I'm just not sure about the vents.... Phill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They gave me a good price on the GT/CS side scoops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are vinyl stickers. I have a relative that owns a sign shop. We took a picture of the snake on the side of the car and he did them up.
