Part of the fun of car engine tuning is being able to show it off to others; with most hoods, however, this isn’t possible. HillBank MotorSports has just released a clear glass window hood for 2005-2009 Ford Mustangs.
It uses actual Mustang hoods, so there aren’t any aftermarket fit issues. The clear hood comes as a kit, or you can pay extra to have it professionally installed.
It’s likely that the muse for this clear glass window hood is the 2009 Corvette ZR1. Since the design mod has already entered the aftermarket world of car parts, it’s only a matter of time before we see these on heavily-tuned Supras and Subarus.
