I'd have to ask.

Why wouldn't you just put the Laguna spoiler on the car? It's a much better piece.
Than the Steeda? What about the GT500 spoiler? The GT500 bolts right up to a Boss.

Re: Boss 302S Hood Availability

I like the steeda the best. Just sucks that I'm going to add a new trunk to put it on.
I like the APR 200 wing second.
And the GT 500/ LS as equal thirds.
I do not like the Boss spoiler at all.

Just need a tune and my hood.
Nice. Looks like you changed your wheels, which ones are those?

Yup and finally got it off the jack stands...first time this year. They are Interlagos from TSW. 9.5"x20"-weigh 23.5 lbs. 10.5"x20"-weigh 24.5lbs. Roll forged rim.

The Steeda hood isn't bad but on my car it would look decidedly underwhelming. The Tiger hood belongs on my car. Funny thing is a none vented hood would keep the blower whine down...it's louder than I thought it would be.
 
Re: Boss 302S Hood Availability

Has anyone gotten their hood yet? Getting antsy to see one installed on a Boss so I can order mine. You promised I didn't have to be the guinea pig on this one. ;D

Tiger racing said GP production was 3-4 weeks out. About a week ago. I figure I'll touch base with them when I get my Boss. Eta next week, not sure I believe that though

I gave Paul @ tiger racing, a call today. He was very helpful and said my hood should be produced and shipped by the end of the week! Sweeeeet!

Really looking forward to seeing these.
Me too! Im waiting to see it to figure how I'm going to paint it. Paul told me today, that ford decided to go with a totally black hood on the production 302S

I would paint it like the original photos where the center is black (white on your Boss) and the surrounding is the color of your car.

Re: Boss 302S Hood Availability

I'll go all black I think. Silver and in my case Sterling Gray can be hard to match so if I go all black I don't have to worry about that.

I would agree, but I wonder why Ford ended up painting the 302S all black? Is it tough to find the right cutoff at the front of the vents? If I do the hood I'm planning on painting it CO with a gloss black center to match the roof.
