The stock S550 hood might blend in with the crowd, but if you’re building a performance street car or just want something that stands out at every stoplight, it’s not cutting it. The Cervini’s Stalker Hood fixes that with a more sculpted, muscular profile and dual heat-extractor vents that aren’t just for looks. They help evacuate hot air from the engine bay, reducing heat soak and keeping your powertrain cooler on spirited runs or long pulls.
Compared to stock, this hood gives your Mustang a more aggressive, almost GT500-inspired look—without compromising fit, finish, or daily drivability. It’s molded from hand-laid fiberglass and designed to reuse your factory hinges and latch for easy bolt-on install. Whether you're after aesthetics, airflow, or both, this one's a solid upgrade.
You’ll find this part in our main 2015 Mustang body styling parts catalog, and specifically under our full lineup of aftermarket Mustang hoods for 2015–2017 GT models.

- You need better airflow and under-hood heat management with your current mods
