Personally my favorite view, sorry for the rather poor quality image.
The increased view of the road is very nice.
We intentionally went as low as possibly to accentuate the aggressive nature of the hood.
There likely isn't enough room to install the GT hood vent if we even wanted to offer something like that. There is 1/4" gap between to two points of concern, the fuse box and the hood release cable.
Was out at Cars & Coffee today in Carlsbad, CA and saw a new 350R. This hood from Helion is a dead-on replica - the 350 hood is very different from the GT hood - different lines, shape, venting, etc. Keep us informed on when it will be available. Now the key is to create the fenders, the front bumper cover, splitter and canards for us mere mortals who cannot afford the asinine ADM's the dealers are charging for 350/350R's.I suppose I can comment on this.
The image pictured is a GT350 hood which we made and used as a basis for creating a unique surface. Yes, the heat extractor is function just like the GT350, and will use the OEM grill insert.
As you can see there is alot of unique surface work, and frankly it looks great. It really has taken on it's own lines with how different the front clips are.
It is being prepped currently to building tooling from. What you see on my car was pulled from a dimensionally stable clay model, and hasn't been prepped yet.
Very excited to see it in carbon, and to get car on the track soon.
What about distance between the horizontal factory strut tower brace and the underside of the hood? Is there enough clearance for a PD supercharger?Personally my favorite view, sorry for the rather poor quality image.

The best way to describe it is essence. The essence, and functionality was captured well, they are rather different pieces.Was out at Cars & Coffee today in Carlsbad, CA and saw a new 350R.

So i'd have to go to Anderson Composites, Carbon Dynamics (likely not - their business practices concern me) or IKON Motorsports for the bumper cover, splitter and canards? Would rather do a complete package. Yes, different materials (more OEM on that). Curious as to why it would not be advantageous? Thanks.The best way to describe it is essence.

We are discussing doing fenders, but they will follow suit with the hood. The essence, and functionality. We want to capture the performance advantages of the 1 inch or 25mm of flare the GT 350 has, coupled with the venting but for the Mustang.
A front fascia is not advantageous at this point.
