You'd prolly have to call Shelby. I know wen I painted my car I had to call em to get the vinyl decals on the car. They ask for every bit of info off the car to make sure u own a actual Shelby. Crazy. I ended up painting the stripes on the top part of the car and keeping the side stripes vinyl. Just had to clear coat the side ones to match.

Could always go and get the CF and then later on have it painted that is what my buddy did to have the carbon fiber weight but still have his body color

"Wyostang08", let me see more pics of your car. I like your hood, I love the Shelby Hood look alot, but I heard that the hood does Not just fit on a 07 GT model, that modifications have to be done to put a hood like that on because it's different.

Re: What hood is better

I'm not going to argue the point here, that's what I heard, but if you look at the front end of both cars, you can see that, they are not identical and based on that alone, there could definately be a difference in the setup. But if you have proof that there is not and you can mount one on a regular GT, then please fill free to show US, include pictures please.
