I think I hate the hood. For the simple reason that it does not follow the lines of the truck. The hood looks out of place IMO. I think there are a lot more options that will look a lot better on your truck.

Get a nice cowl hood(not too big) or the SS hoods look nice for silverados. The SS style gets expensive real quick(iirc), but if I were you I wouldn't get that "ram air" style.

i agree

When it comes to looks get what YOU like. I personally would go w/ a cowl though, or SS hood. I do agree on getting a steel one, fit and finish wont be an issue then.

I'm getting the goodmark cowl induction hood with ram air installed Friday. It isn't functional but I'm having the shop cut out the front to make it some what functional. I'm not running it to the air box but using it to help my SC'ed 6.0 cool off faster. I've seen a few other guys do the same thing with the hood and it looked good. The good hood(double ram air hood on eBay) looks ok, they just charge you an arm and a leg for it($600+).
