Hey I’m Justin with AmericanMuscle.com, and I’m taking a closer look at this Unpainted and AmericanMuscle pre painted hood scoop, fitting all 2005-2009 Mustangs. This scoop is inspired by a similar scoop found on the 65 and 66 Shelby GT350, and when installed, really gives the S197 hood some much needed muscle. The scoop itself is constructed using ultra durable high impact plastic, and as I mentioned earlier is either available unpainted, or pre painted. This pre painted version does get sprayed right here at AmericanMuscle headquarters, using the same base and clear coat urethane paint Ford uses in their factories making for a perfect color match to your ride. In the box, you’ll find everything needed for the install, including the scoop itself, the detailed instructions, the drilling template, the 3M automotive tape, the 3M adhesion promoter, the alcohol prep pads, all the hardware, and finally the plastic insert. You will have to drill a few holes into the hood using the drilling template, just to get the scoop installed properly. Once you have the holes drilled, move over to the scoop itself, and prep the back of the scoop using the 3M adhesion promoter wherever the 3M tape will go. Once you have that done, remove the protective backing on the tape, and adhere the scoop carefully to your hood. Tighten up the screws and you’re pretty much good to go. I know it sounds a little daunting drilling into your hood, but you should have total confidence using the supplied template and the detailed instructions. When it’s all said and done, you should have the scoop installed in about an hour. So if you’re looking to add a little bit more muscle to the hood of your S197, and you’re a fan of that early Shelby styling, then be sure to check out one of these two options right here at AmericanMuscle.com
