Congrats.

FYI - there is one on eBay, painted black, ready to go. The guy is also selling the CAI and the Razzi body kit as well. Claims his car was totalled before he was able to install it.

I agree. We need a link for this! I'd love a new hood for my Monte (Getting wheels and exhaust done roughly next week), and I have no idea where to look for them.

Nice! While it does look mean on the Monte, it has no place on the Imp, imo. We need something else. Someone needs to figure this out. The Imp needs something different.

I'm just not a big fan of the hood. I'd rather have something that has more of a cowl hood look to it.

The scoop is made to be functional with most aftermarket intakes. I believe they were working with ColdAirInductions

Yup. New tube coming off the TB and also redesigning the box so the TCM/ECM will fit on the inside of it.

It's alright but still looks to batmanish but will probably look better when it is painted. I would have gone for a simple cowl too.

I wonder if MPD would buy your stock hood.
