Is this hood the firehawk hood?

Is this the firehawk hood, but just the 4 extractors in it?

I know the hood is a mecham hood, I guess I didnt ask the question right. I mean it looks to me like it is a lot like the firehawk hood, but it has the 4 ports in it. I was wondering if a set of firehawk stripes would fit on the hood like these ones

Any help is needed.

The hoods look similar, with the exception of the 4 extractors. I would think those stripes would fit, but would require a lot of cutting due to the extractors

The firehawk stripes might work with alot of cutting. The (original) firehawk heat extractors are off to the side of the raised cowl. Where those on the Mecham are built into the cowl runs.

You'll have to put more stripes on the Mecham hood to cover up all the embarrassing cracking and pitmarks all over. And those stripes....wait a sec. There's my link convieniently laying around again...
