I like it better without the bird and decals, but that's just me. I've never liked the bird on thirdgens.

the bird plus the ram air hood looks very nice and in good taste. it gives it somewhat of a old school meets new school look.

yeah, I like the bird on the R/A-I hood. In fact, once I get the thing painted, I'm going with the bird in silver over red.

That's not a Ford beside your car is it? he he....j/k. About the graphics, It looked ok without 'em but its looks great with 'em. Heck, I'd be happy with a paint job on my car!

I really like the graphics. It is like it was designed for that hood more than any other to be honest. It has the best "factory" look with it in my opinion.... considering the ASCD hood isn't factory.
I like the graphics. Without the bird, it looks "naked" like you posted.

I'm so used to seeing decals and emblems on cars that your car looks naked without them. I like the hood decal.

Naked pics... Deep down I knew better, but D@mn, I'm still gullible! Seriously, it looks like it belongs there. Actually, it makes me kick myself (some more) for selling my '79 6.6 liter T/A

Yeah, I did see it (77 or 78...?) it's the same color as mine was, that might have been part of what reminded me. Also, I meant to say that the bird is a T/A thing. They don't all have to have one, but done right, I think it could look good on any generation T/A. Just my 2C.

Car looks too boring without the decals...the T/A emblems (especially the hood bird!!) really set it off. Great car.
