CDC shaker hoods for 2010 and 2011 Ford Mustang
The Ford Mustang has never been a stranger to aftermarket treatment and the latest renditions of the legend are no exception to the norm. Classic Design Concepts, one of the forerunners in the automotive tailoring industry, has just recently taken the bubble wrap two new Shaker hood systems for both the 2010 and 2011 V6 and GT Ford Mustangs. The goal here? Provide just that extra bit of style and panache every owner wants, but maintain quality, form, and function all the while.
These Shaker hood systems are tried and true, keeping the Mustang coupe and Mustang GT up to par in quality, as CDC has spent numerous hours in R&D on these kits over the past several years on the first generation of S197 Ford Mustang.

CLASSIC DESIGN CONCEPTS ANNOUNCES SHAKER HOOD SYSTEM FOR 2010 AND 2011 MUSTANG
DETROIT – August 2010 – Classic Design Concepts, an innovative leader in the automotive restyling industry, has released a new V6 Shaker System for the 2010 Ford Mustang. The company is also readying a shaker hood system for the new power plants in the 2011 model Mustang. Dealers and owners of the new car can now modify the exterior of their 2010 Mustangs with this high-quality accessory. Like many of CDC’s products, the V6 Shaker System is manufactured in the United States and built to precise O.E. specifications for excellent fit and finish. CDC was one of the first companies to offer restyling products for the 2010 Mustang.
“Mustang owners are looking for ways to enhance their ride for the summer cruising season, and we’re excited to offer them the V6 Shaker System for the 2010 Mustang,” said George Huisman, president of Classic Design Concepts. “This new product enhances the visual appeal of the new Mustang considerably, giving it a more aggressive appearance.”
Along with giving the Mustang a great look, the Shaker System is designed to prevent water from entering the engine making the system safe and functional in all weather conditions. It requires no paint and utilizes the design of the factory aluminum hood for a straightforward installation. The system also increases air flow, which results in performance gains similar to those of a typical cold air intake.
“The functionality and look of the V6 Shaker System is an undeniable combination,” added Huisman. “It is a must-have for any Mustang owner.”
The summer surprises don’t stop there. Currently in the works, CDC is reengineering the shaker system for the new 5.0 L V8 and the 3.7 L V6 engines. They will be released in time for the CDC Open House and Woodward Dream Cruise this month.

You know I don’t usually comment on products on sites but I have to on this one. I’ve been designing and styling aftermarket products for new OEM performance/muscle cars for the last 8-10 years, degree in industrial design, and I can’t for the life of me understand why some aftermarket companies can’t make a shaker, or ram air system that looks good under the hood.
This CDC shaker completely hides the engine with plastic box-like structures that don’t even look good. The scoop is cool, that’s about it. At the center front there’s the main air intake tube which is obviously a tube-like shape (round) going into a square opening? Looks like it was cut open with a box cutter? There’s a Ford Racing Plaque just adhesived onto the sides of the intake cover box on the sides? Couldn’t you have atleast molded in a square recess to make the plate fit flush? These are easy things to fix that would make the system look less cheap. Why can’t the air go directly through a filter and straight into the front central mounted throttle body Instead of snaking two hoses into the air box? Only reason I say this is because I’ve worked on designs similar to this for a company making air intake systems for custom hoods for the new Chally. Just seems like there’s no real engineering going on with many of these parts only to be bolted onto your new expensive $35,000 Mustang GT!
