Heat Extractor. Designed as a fully functional heat extractor hood, this SpeedForm hood features two open heat extractor vents that allow hot air to exit the engine bay keeping your engine running cooler.

Quality Construction and Finish. Constructed from hand laid fiberglass, SpeedForm hoods are completed top and bottom with a smooth gel coat for a show quality finish. Please click here for proper priming and prepping instructions. AmericanMuscle highly recommends professional installation.

Safety. SpeedForm hoods feature reinforced metal latch and hinge plate areas for strength and additional safety. SpeedForm recommends the use of a true functional hood latch and pin kit on all their hoods.

Keep Your Hood Lines Clean. Keep your new hood looking sleek and clean with a Squirter Nozzle Relocation Kit that relocates your windshield washer squirter nozzles onto your wiper arms.

Application. The SpeedForm Venom Hood utilizes the original OEM hinges and hood latch to bolt up in the stock location on any 2010 and newer GT or V6 Mustang for outstanding show winning styling.

Does rain get in through the vent and scoop? Do the make plugs for the hood vents for when it is raining? If I am driving in the rain won't rain get into my CAI box through the scoop?

in principle they could. i've never noted a wet filter after driving in the rain. but with an oiled filter it should repel the water anyway.
With a functional hood vents/scoops rain can get into the engine compartment. Be sure if you have any sort of aftermarket intake it comes with the plastic surrounding and weatherstrip so water can't enter.
Yes (under hood vent covers), which most don't use because Ford new modular engine is sealed with "O" rings on all fittings. Rarely do Mustangs suffer from water damage issues. Yes, but the hood is designed for open air CAI and they are water proof with proper cleaning and added protective oil spray. Factory enclosed air boxes will not benefit from the air ram feature.
The upper vents on the hood do allow for water intrusion. The front is a functional scoop that diverts air to the driver side of the hood over the cold air intake if installed. Water would probably get under the hood, but most of the items should be spray tight.
Yes rain does get in through the hear extractors but I've had no problems. My car stays parked outside. Unless you are driving through the rain I suppose it might come.in through the ram air duct system but sitting no rain doesn't come in.

Does the bottom side of the hood need to be painted, or is the included gel paint sufficient for protecting the hood?

It wouldn't be necessary to paint the underside of the hood, but we do recommend getting it painted.

Does AM offer paint services for the unpainted hood? There is no way I would want an unpainted hood. AM has done a super job of matcj=hing up the color on my 2011 GT. Its Race Red. If they can paint... was the approx. cost?

Unfortunately, at this time American Muscle does not offer painted hoods. The best place would be a local auto body shop that you trust. They can also give you an estimate.

How much would the prep, paint, and install be? It says $250-500 but that is a large range and I am on a tight budget. Is it okay to paint the heat extractors as well? 1 answer

I suggest going to a few shops to see what their estimate would be of the job. This will help give you a better idea of the cost. The heat extractors can be painted.

The description of the Venom hood states it will not work with aftermarket hood shocks yet at least one customer photo clearly shows the hood with hood shocks installed. Since the hood utilizes the factory hinges and most shocks attach to the hinge I am curious why hood shocks will not work. Can someone offer some clarity...I would really like to use my current hood shocks on the new hood. 1 answer

From what I understand it has to do with the weight of the hood and the pressure in the hood strut. There are struts made specifically for fiberglass hoods that could potentially work. Some have used struts originally intended for steel hoods with no issues while others have noted some buckling in the hood. Cervini sells a strut for their Ram IV hood that might work as the Venom hood is very similar in design. I would recommend you contact the manufacturer directly; however I have to believe I hood strut could be mated to this hood if the strut loading is appropriate for a fiberglass hood.

What are the dimensions of the vents in this hood? I plan on adding the white MMD Hood Vents as well but don't know if they'll fit. 1 answer

Unfortunately, the MMD Hood Vent Louvers - Pre-painted (05-12 GT, V6), item # 71334, (http://www.americanmuscle.com/painted-mmd-hood-vent-0509.html) will not fit in the Venom hood. The vents are two different sizes and shapes. The MMD vents are very skinny compared to the Venom vents.

How much does this hood weigh? What is the weight difference between the stock hood and this hood? 1 answer

I have a Cobra R hood on my 07 V6 and the fiber glass hoods are quite a bit heavier. I will add this, My scoops are functional and they put cooler air right into my CAI filter and I picked up about 12 more horsepower. It made a big difference. Your car will not feel the extra weight.

New Hood

This hood looks great. It gives the car a much more aggressive look. It does not line up exactly with the side panels (the hood is about an 1/8" lower than the panels). Not an issue for me, but maybe for someone else. There is not a location already built to put your windshield fluid squirters, so plan on moving those or drilling into the hood. Also, the hood is thicker and that thicker part is wider than the factory hood. So there is a gap between it and the factory plastic hood cowl. I am a huge fan of this hood!

Venom hood bites back

Had the hood sent to a near by body shop for paint and install. The body shop manager said that the hood came in good condition only thing need was some minor prep work for the paint. Almost could recongnize my car when I first saw it. This hood along with the RTR splitter completely change the stock front end look. I would recommend this hood if you are thinking about it. Just do it

The car looks so much better

I bought this hood after alot of reading, and research. The stock hood started bubbling in the front. So instead of spending alot of money to have it fixed with no guarantee of the same thing not happening again, I bought this one. Took about an hour to fit it, the painter said that it was one of the best hoods he worked with. Strongly recommend trufiber.

Great Hood!

The hood was awesome. Needed a lot of shop work, but completely worth it. Gives your mustang a very aggressive and mean look. Awesome sound to go with the look. THE ONLY THING IS, buy the Squirter Nozzle Relocation Kit. You'll need to either buy it or mount the Squirter in the hood vent.

Great Hood

What a beautiful hood. I had it delivered to the body shop. It arrived in perfect condition. Test mounting showed nothing needed to be trimmed. I painted the heat extractors Race Red, I will be designing a stripe using Red and silver. This hood is tough looking yet subtle. Great product!

Super easy install, amazing look!

This hood will make your mustang stand out! It is very aggressive and has functional vents. The install was super easy and can be done by any backyard mechanic. Just have another helping hand. Only issue is the water sprayers, still havent figured out how to put those back on since the hood dosent have any place to put them. I definitely recommend buying this hood! You wont regret it.

The shop that installed and painted the hood said it was delivered in good condition and was well protected. It only required a small amount of sanding before painting. Shipping was fast from AM. Very happy with all their products. I get a ton of looks with this hood.

Great aggresive look

Hood was packaged absolutely fantastic, Body man told me that there was a lot of prep work involved, He had to bake it and sand it multiple times to make sure all gel was out of it. But was well worth it when he got it finished. Had to adjust the driver fender a little to get it to fit evenly on both sides, factory hinge bolts did not work with this hood, bummer there. But all in all it was worth the money to give it a aggressive look.

Aggressive Look

When i walked into the paint shop to see how my 2012 looked with its new hood on.... man I was impressed. Now I got A mean look to go with the mean sound of my BORLA exhausts. I recommend getting this if you want to turn heads while driving around town, the chrome vents shine and stand out with my darker color mustang. I did notice a slight decrease in engine temp, very slight so the ram air vents feeding more air to my Cold air intake is helping.

Trufiber madness

The hood came with some damage to the front and even though I didn't notice it right when the shipper dropped it off, AM refunded me the cost of the repair from the body shop. As far as fit, there is a bow in the middle and for the last couple weeks I've had weights on the hood (as recommended from many forums) to get rid of the bow but it seems when the hood heats back up the bow comes back. Overall once it was painted and installed it gives my car a very mean look and I would recommend this hood to anyone.

Agressive appearance

The look is aggressive and impressive for my V6 Convertible. Will have to get the supercharger soon to match the fast look of the car. The air inlet and heat discharge work great to dissipate the heat coming off the engine. Had a professional install the hood and prep and paint. The outcome was much better than I had anticiapted. Overall a plus plus all the way around!

Excellent quality.

This is a great hood with all the style and functionality you could wish for. Perfect if you have a CAI to take advantage of the RAM air system and the heat extractor vents are practical, yet so d*mn seksi!! I saw a video from Trufiber where they swore by the quality and strength of the product so much so that they took two big guys with sledge hammers to a venom hood. They were pounding the thing for a good while and it never so much as cracked.
