Here are a couple of the 4" ram-air hood. I'll be honest with you, if you can find someone with the hood closeby to you, drive their car and make sure you can live with the hood before you get it. It's not THAT bad, but it starts getting annoying when you go over rolling hills and you're sitting up so you can see. I'm only about 5'9" or so, so if you are taller, it might not be as bad.





I may have a couple more on here, but those pics were about a week before I wrecked the car, so no more hood. I never really got to take some before and after pics to compare the heighth. After driving with the 4" hood, I couldn't imagine a 5" extended to the windshield. Hope this helps.

The only way that hood can be pulled off is if you are running drag wheels all the time, to complete that look. On street wheels it looks super retarted.
