2, 3, and 4 look pretty good. I think 4 is the best though because it captures the front of the car as well giving you a kind of in your face look.

id say the first one looks the best...
to make it look cleaner i would leave the part of the hood scoop back by the cowl in it, but where the scoop overlays on the motor in the ay i would try to get rid of it, as well as the scoop lines towards the front of the hood...seems it clutters up the bay right there.
only on the first pic though...on the others the scoop looks tight

I like #2, you can still see the hood structure the best, while still seeing through it.

They all look pretty decent. I've done those before and I think they lok alot better if you fade it so that way you see the egine really good but not so much of the ugly stuff like the battery, latches, fuse box, ect, ect....

When you layer the hood over the engine bay shot use your round erase tool and mess with the opacity and do small circles working from the inside out. Each full circle you stop and start a new one from the center again so the middle is more translucent than the outside.

Here are a couple pics from day. Hopefully she sells soon so took some more pics before she does. You can see an f16 landing in the 2nd and 3rd pic (3rd pic easier to tell)
