Well.........Depends on how picky you are. Im getting my whole front clip painted. Bumper,hood,fenders. This way it all matches. I know the body shop owner so they are hooking me up. But I would guess about $1,000-$1,200 to do that. Just the hood itself like 500-800.

When Amy and I put our cars next to each other, u can tell a big difference in the hoods. Although I have a raptor hood, not a WS6 hood heres a comparison:





Minus the fact that my TA looks like a 4x4 next to hers lol.. you can tell how aggressive that hood is.

yes 10% discoiunt for tech members and ws9 all the way looks cool its lighter than stock it cant be confused with a stock car and underhood temps should be lower as well. I have a pin on s9 and I could not be happier its beautiful light and tons of air flow under the hood

the underside of the hood looks great if you have the edges finished and have it painted and cleared. i had my cousin do it for me because i show my car and it looks very nice. im too lazy to take a pic of it now though lol

The WS9 is so sexy.

It would definetly be my pick out of the 2.

But the Raptor hood has always been my favorite.
