I need you help deciding on a hood. The only problem is there are so many good choices. So, please let me know which one of these you like...

First here is what my car looks like now:


I have also ordered the following:
CDC Ducktail Spoiler:

Cervini's Window Scoop:

Cervini's Side Scoop:

and A Rear Black Out Kit:


So, keeping in mind what my car looks like now, and the mods I have already ordered, which of these should I get:

Ram Air:

KR:

Heat Extractor:

C-Series:

Concept:

Of those listed, I'd go the KR route...ram air with a few mods(or add the WMS intake)AND has the heat extractors as well...plus looks killer
Have you thought about or do you not care for the cowl look? Steeda has a real nice one(what I will get one day).

You can get the concept hood with an add on that directs the air flow to the airbox. I don't know if I would get any of those though...a simple 2" cowl hood would look killer IMO.

Yeah, but that is easy enough to fix. For the time being, I am using CDC little billet thingy to cover up the wholes. In a few weeks I will have the body shop cover the holes and respray the trunk... no biggie.

That definitely works. I really like how that silver one looks. I'm thinking about doing that to my car or possibly using the Saleen hood instead (haha saleen hood with roush bumper..) I wonder how that would look with the black billit grill and off center pony logo...Hmmmm

Haha if you want that combo too then we have the same great taste. I think that'd look awesome. The Saleen hood has a bit of a cowl and it also has heat extractors. I guess that'd make the most sense since my pony has forced induction.

I like the Xenon side scoops since they go all the way to the fender for a more finished look.(ignore all that junk they have stuck all down the rocker panel...)
