instead of getting a gt hood just get the scoop for it, they go for around 140-180 depending on what one you get i belive, (reg gt or 35th anni) Id say 200-300 to paint a hood is fair, cost me 200 to get my trucks hood painted, but if you only get the scoop ur not talking alot for paint.
www.cervinis.com
www.ageclassic.com (i think they have some)
just a few sites off the top of my head

If he has an 03 it has the 99 cobra hood which has the scoop going the wrong direction and the scoop won't work at all. So...just buy a better looking hood.

I like the hood you have now, but if you want another one the Saleen S-281E (S-351) hood looks good.

I actually like the '03 hood.
My only complaint was that it felt so heavy compared to my stock hood. Like an extra twenty pounds.

cervinis.com makes an 03 cobra hood that will work with the stock bumper (not have a huge gap that the 03 cobra does without the 03 bumper) its nice and their quality is great, i would only buy from oem ford or cervinis.com
