    Hi, and thanks for the input on previous questions I've asked. I have a 07 Shelby gt #4517 I think, and noticed a few "ford-isms".. Hoping to get some general input on the quality of the car, some up-grades, etc.,

    I noticed that the hood pins are drilled through the steel and there's no rust inhibitor, also the steering wheel is really clumsy, and the instrument cluster is impossible to read at high speed as watching the road requires attention.

    I just wanted to see if anyone out there was upgrading their 07's with any products.

    Thanks!

    The Hood is Aluminum. But you can always use a very small Modelers Brush to brush on some Primer & Paint on the bare metal.

    Thanks David!

    Any news on possible interior upgrades, I'm thinking instrument cluster (very hard to read at high speeds), also some additional lighting for the front grill?
