Without looking at the price, what do you guys think about this hood? I always liked the SS style hood scoop, but not sure it works on the 03 and up body.

SS Ram air hood

I like it, except for the price, lol. I'd rather see it in person however to determine if I really like it or not.

Check this from our sponsor....http://www.stylintrucks.com/parts.as..._prod_ids=3187

edit: Just noticed those are non-functional but I only searched for a few minutes. I think you can find some more options if you look around.

It's not that expensive for a composite, ram air hood. It's what I'd expect to pay.

Those are also steel. You pay for the weight reduction when you go to composite (more expensive to manufacture).

I think it's a good looking hood, but I prefer the cowl hoods that are out there for the 03's and up.
