My ABC Exclusive 2.5 Ram-Air should be in today. Scoops aren't cut out. Am wondering if anyone knows where I can get the screens for the front of the hood? Am not going to cut them out just wanting them for looks.

On my 2000 Trans Am I just bought the factory one's for my Harwood Ram Air hood.

My cervini 1.5" Ram Air Hood came with holes and screens... maybe call up cervini's and ask them if you could just get the screens? The hoods might be similar enough that the cervini screens could be modified to fit?

cervini hood for comparison


I dunno how the hood quality will be from ABC...

If you're not cutting them out, i'd just paint the holes black and leave it at that.

Hood came in last night, not gotten a chance to take it out of the box.

I may just leave it the way it is.

Here is pics of the hood before the final alignment. This is my 3rd abc, never had any issues yet.

I agree. I had that same hood from Cervini and if you drive it on a regular basis you won't want to cut them out.

am guessing the wind gets under the hood.

Am having hood pins installed also. Car is in the shop getting reprimered/blocked then painted.

car is complete. Had it reprimered, all black areas repainted, fender fixed, trunk lid, rear bumper. Not a show quality paint job but looks alot better.

I have that hood and don't have any plugs or screens in the cutouts. I'd like screens but I can't figure a sleek way to install any. Otherwise I don't mind, but water gets into the engine bay during washes and when I get caught in rain (which happens all the freakin' time!). It doesn't take long to clean up afterward, but it's still annoying.
