Anderson Composites Double-Sided Carbon Fiber Cowl Hood – 2015-2017 Mustang GT (HD15FDMU-CJ-DS)

Description

The stock S550 hood isn’t built to support serious power-adders or high heat loads, especially when you’re running boosted setups. The Anderson Composites Double-Sided Carbon Fiber Cowl Hood fixes that by giving you extra clearance up top, better underhood airflow, and a weight-saving carbon fiber construction that’s as functional as it is aggressive.

Unlike single-sided options, this hood is finished in real carbon fiber both inside and out. The 3" cowl design clears bulky aftermarket intake manifolds and blowers while channeling airflow away from the engine bay—making it ideal for high-performance street and drag builds.

You’ll find it alongside other top-tier options in our 2015 Mustang body styling parts or head over to our full lineup of aftermarket Mustang hoods to compare styles and specs.

Key Features & Benefits

• 3-Inch Cowl Clearance – Fits aftermarket intake manifolds, superchargers, and other tall induction components
• Fully Finished on Both Sides – Real carbon fiber on top and bottom—no fiberglass inner liner or painted underhood
• Functional Airflow Management – Rear venting helps evacuate underhood pressure and heat
• UV-Stable Gloss Clear Coat – Resists yellowing and fading while highlighting the carbon weave

Technical Specifications

• Material: Aerospace-grade carbon fiber (double-sided wet carbon)
• Weight Savings: Lighter than OEM steel hood; savings vary by trim
• Adjustability: Fixed cowl design, no movable elements
• Additional Required Components: Hood pins strongly recommended
• Part Number: HD15FDMU-CJ-DS

Who This is For

This hood is built for serious 2015–2017 Mustang GT owners running aftermarket intake systems, forced induction, or drag-style builds. It’s perfect for:

• Cars with 2.3L Whipple or Cobra Jet-style intake manifolds
• Weight-conscious track or street builds
• Owners who want high-end, double-sided carbon fiber construction without compromise

If you’re after a hood that’s just as functional as it is show-ready, this is the move.
