nice to see someone actually building one of these style hoods that looks oem and not a cheap knock off. Bravo, hope to see one of these in person one day

This. Unless the 2018's get a redesign with a lower hoodline...

God I would love that if there was a factor option that somehow lined up nicely with our 2015-2017 body lines.

Hate my Focus/Fusion inspired retarded looking hood.

GT350 hood actually gives the car some aggressive looks while making it seem even lower to the ground.

Need an update.

Sorry for the absence work as been busy at work.

I will keep my comments brief because the Helion is not a vendor here, or of Mustang parts yet; and this could be construed as advertising until they become a vendor later in August. They are in the process of moving to a larger building prior to completing the tooling up for the hood.

My involvement has change slightly as my car was just hit doing significant structural damage to all the front body interfacing points; as it was struck from the side racking the front end.

I can't see the lower height of the hood doing well in Euro Endcap testing specifically in the pedestrian protection section, so something similar may not happen on a car which is global.

Sorry to hear about your car.

Did you manage to get the hood painted before the wreck? Any pics of it finished and painted?
