A missing or worn-out Mustang hood bumper might cause issues with your hood aligning and shutting correctly. A new hood bumper can fix any alignment problems and ensure that your hood fits in the correct position. They can also prevent your hood from slamming down on any metal in the engine bay.

Mustang hood bumpers are available either individually or as a kit. Shop hood bumpers from CJ Classics and Scott Drake for OEM-style replacements made from quality rubber. Adjustable hood bumpers mount on the front radiator support and help keep the hood level. Fender-to-hood bumpers mount on the corners of the fender apron. They only cost a few bucks and will go a long way toward preventing future damage.

Don't forget to check out other small but vital Mustang hood components, like hood locks and pins. And while you're at it, why not upgrade from the factory prop rod to a more safe and convenient hood strut?
