At some point I would like to get a custom hood made, but I don't want to cut up the MM's hood, so I was wondering if the Crown Vic, or the GM have the same hood as our Marauder, so I could just go to a junk yard or something like that and just pick one up then, I wouldn't have any down time with the MM. If it is the same size what years would I need to look for(I'm sure 03-04)? Thanks, sorry if it has been asked before.

98+ panther hoods will fit the 03/04 MM (not the towncar though)

alright, all I needed to know... though I guess that kills my dream of putting a towncar hood on my MM, guess it will have to stay a dream.

buy a Grand Marquis hood. The crown vics have a different header panel. Save yoursalf any chance of a hassle and buy a GM hood. Or you could call the local junkyard and ask for a MM hood. They will have exact part interchange software, which will pull up a GM hood first.

Trust me, I worked selling junkyard parts...

You may have ... worked selling junkyard parts, however .....

While the header panel may be different between the 1998+ Crown Victoria and the Grand Marquis / Marauder, the hoods are identical and all have the same FoMoCo part # - F8AZ-16612-AA.

Yep, the hoods are the same.
