Top of Fender Scoops From a '69 on a 2011+

[Back N Black]

Has anyone thought about putting the top of the fender scoops from a 1969 Mustang Fastback on a 2011+? Has anybody seen it done.

I'm intrigued, and with the quarter panel shape changing in 2010 to more mirror the 1969 I wonder how it would fit.

I've thought about it too...but I think it's too smooth a curve to cut into like that.

If we had scoops like that, I'd want them to be functional for brake and diff cooling.

It looks ugly.

This x1000

looks like someone added scoops from the autozone surplus.

What mustangs use to be

What mustangs are turning into :nonono:

It looks ugly.

Yeah, but that's some f'd up widebody crap:

I'm sure *somebody* could make it look better.

Isn't that the new tribute gt500 to Carol Shelby? It's supposed to mimic his styling of his 69 Shelby gt500

Ive never cared for th widebodies....

Wish Ford would release that color on the 2014s

That widebody could be worse. Shelby American did a good job making it subtle but noticeable at the same time. I think it could look great with a few more tweaks, but I would still drive that car. Traction with those 345s would be no problem at all in a GT500. :burnout:

 

[Back N Black]

Yeah, that did not turn out near as cool looking as I thought it would.

Why the hate for wide bodies? Some look decent, and gets in the wider meats if its flush with the body and tight in the wheel well. Better than the current mustangs with skinny tires and 4 inch gap between tire and fender.

Widebody is one thing...that tribute car just has a FAT ASS! And an F'd up attempt at the quarter panel scoop.

Love the color too. Reminds me of the H&R SEMA car with the white strobe stripe.

+1 on loving the color. I have mixed feelings on the wide body but i do love the wheels.

Lowered more and different wheels that would be drop dead GORGEOUS IMO.
