Another vote for w/o the center extractors. I know it's similar to the available WS9 but the firehawk like nostrils look soooo much better to me. If this is made without the center extractors I will buy for sure. Book it!

Take those heat extractors, and put them on a Firehawk-style hood.

It would make sense to make them without the vents on the scoops then, wouldn't it? I personally would never buy a hood with vents on it like that. Looks hideous, imo. The smooth photo shop is where it's at!

getting better, but going back to the point of consistency... look at how curvy these cars are, there arent too many straight lines and 90* corners... and with all the other curvy holes in the hood already to mix that with straight, is bad design. needs to flow, flow is sex, and sex sells. if the middle 'cuts' were moved higher to the back of the hood, then the straight connection would be better visually made. the reverse curve helps a little. what about dual plexi panels there instead, vette ls9 style? else im all for getting rid of the center 'cuts' too... keep up the great work though!

or do multiple cuts next to each other like the viper styling, but on the top ram air nostrils not the sides... and curve the corners to flow with the hood... oooooo sex. (thinking pre-2003 viper hoods with all the curved louvres in them, forget the company that made em)

this hood kinda reminds me of the 98-03 Grand Prix GT/GTP SD Ram Air hood(becauae of the heat extractors) I like the heat extractors in the center but I don't like the ones on the side,they mess the whole hood up,plus they should have did the nostrils like the WS6 hoods
