I have the 2000 Cobra R hood on my GT right now. I opened up the louvers to help with some sense of heat extraction. I originally got the hood thinking I would get the 2.6 KB, which requires a cowl. I have since decided on a fully built motor, trickflow heads and a 2.1 KB, which does not. I prefer the looks of the Termi hood just a little more than the 00 R hood. I haven't had the hood painted since opening up the louvers, so I can have it painted whatever color you need.
The hood is currently sonic blue. I would love to work out a trade for the 03/04 Termi hood, but I could also see selling the 00 R hood and purchasing a 03/04 hood as well. Let me know if any of you guys are interested.
I have removed the wire screen since that picture was taken so it could be finished and painted.
For those of you guys that had been following my issues... the hood should work fine on 4v motors that have coil covers (for sure 03/04 Cobras). It should also work fine for non-top mounted spark plugs... like the v6's. I cannot recommend this for any GT that wishes to drive in the rain... without making your own drainage pan. I made several successfully, but had issues with the adhesive wanting to be more than temporary. I don't have a shop around here that does free form fiberglass.

I have too many problems with it to justify keeping it over another hood that is just as hot.

hmmm...unfortunate, but the termi hood would look badass.
I've seen a guy with an 02 s.b. v6 in town, I can ask him if he'd be interested in buying the R hood if you don't mind just selling it fo cash moneys...

the open louvers allow water on the heads, which shorts my coils and plugs.
You can ask him... we'll see how it goes.

I'm thinking of trying to make the drainage pan again... so I could fit a 2.6L blower under the hood. A 2.6 won't fit under the Termi hood

I like the hood better cut with screen... and... I am going to fix it. I picked up the fiberglass and resin today. I'm not 100% sure what design I want just yet

Yah, I'm more of a termi hood fan myself, sleek and functional. But the cobra R hood did look badass in person on his car. He had the cobra bumper, you need the cobra bumper for it to look good.
