Those have been in the Griggs catalog for some time. It is the pin on version that Tiger has had available.
The hinged version is what is supposed to be out somewhat soon. :rockon:
so how soon is that somewhat soon? anyone got exact dates yet????
yes this
I would say Paul is working on this but he also has a World Challenge GTS campaign to concentrate on too. Building a race car and getting to my double race school took all of my time, to the point that I quit building parts so I could concentrate on the car. I saw my wife long enough to eat supper and say goodbye in the morning before I headed to my day job.
Call Tiger Racing and ask about the 99-04 hood availability, Paul is very nice and will talk to you.

Sweet 94-98 is gunna get some love too!! I know what my next purchase will be 
Has anyone installed the hood on a 11+ with a Roush TVS and JLT Big Air Intake? I'm curious if water can get to the intake filter.
Is it just me or has the tiger racing page disappeared and become a redirect link to the teams facebook page?!?

not just you, I get the same, frustrating since on their Facebook page there are no 99-04 parts at all :shrug:
E-Mail is the best way to get ahold of them. I believe a new website is in the works.
Aside from the fact that I may be the one person without a facebook:shrug: Too much drama. Any news on the bolt on 99-04 hood?
^What he said?
Thanks!!!! I really love the hood's design. My car is also a Daily Driver and has been through several rain storms. Some water gets inside while standing still. No damage as of yet. This hood really does it's job. Air intake temps usually hover around 5-15 degrees above ambient temp.
As you know, I was recently forced to get a new hood. Just installed the TR fiberglass hood on an S197 08 Mustang GT. The hood is real nice and fits well. Although it could use some improvement in aero design, I will have to forego the mod at this time as I am itching to get back on track.
My question for you fellas that have installed this hood with hood pins is in regards to the hood pin latch screws.
The location for the latches is very thin fiberglass, and is two layers about an inch apart. The latch kit comes with very small screws and tiny clips that have worked well in aluminum, but are just not going to make it in FG.
What did you use that you felt comfortable with that would hold up and not rip out in a crash?
Below are some pics to show the type of latches I am using. I would like to stay with these latches as they are correct for the car.
(Before anyone gets of topic, the outside two pins are not yet fully positioned.)
Any help or info with latch pin plate retention greatly appreciated.
