Sorry these were takin with my Phone....... The hood fits pretty good but not absolutley perfect. Then again my stock one didnt either though. Over all I think VFN does a great job with there hoods.

I've been interested in that hood as well. I don't have a Ram Air hood on mine yet. I'm just curious how is the vision with it? It looks like its a little higher than the stock WS6 hood.

As far as visibility its not bad at all actually. It is about 2 inches taller then the tallest part of the wiper arm. It was wierd at first especially when I went through a construction zone and there was a concrete barracade on the pass. side I thought I was gonna hit. But by the end of the ride home I got my judgement back. But the hood is 1 inch larger then a WS6 hood.
