My thoughts exactly, or maybe with the H.O. hood.

I think that hood looks great by itself in the picture. Hard to get a true opinion though until I see one really mounted on a car. PS does help some, but its not the real deal, so still leaves much to be desired. Someone please buy this hood and put it on your car and post up pics!

I think i like the vents, they need to be alittle more round and not so sharp to flow right with the rest of the body

lol. I don't like it because it's missing the quintessential ram air part, but besides that I can appreciate it's prototype because it does serve purpose. It shows us that viper air extractors would be a great concept for our cars. But, honestly I wish VFN would rework their WSQ hoods just a tad bit and make it perfect for the greater amount of people. It has potential of being the greatest hood out there for us, all they have to do is restyle their ram air extractors to be less boxy looking and maybe throw in some mecham style ram air extractors and it will be amazing.

One more 'chop:



I left the sides of the cowl carbon fiber as an accent and gave the hood Firehawk-style "nostrils".

Saw it, emailed the company. They don't have a single pic of the hood mounted. I imagine the fit must be horrible.

You would think while designing a hood they would test it to see how it looks.

Yeah, this hood would definitely look better with Firehawk or maybe WSQ-style "nostrils". I wonder in VFN would be interested in that combination.

I don't like that hood at all, way to much going on with those huge extractors.
