I would kill for one of those...maybe with a ram air scoop and heat extractors....

you can get a normal hood with the ram-air scoop and heat extractors(Suncoast Creations, BTW) but you cannot get a chevy HD hood to fit the gmcs they were never made and i havent even seen a concept for one, although it would be a cool hood if anyone ever made one

Tbyrne had a suncoast hood on his 2500hd it was actually just like yours but red and duramax

this was a better idea than the wiper covers

You can make a chevy hd hood fit, it will just have to be cut to clear the headlights. Several have done this and it looks great.

Power dome hoods came out on the 2500s and 3500s in '05 and all fullsize (1500, 2500, 3500) in '06. 2005 1500s and all 2004s and earlier had the regular rise hood. Just an FYI.

actually, they were produced on all 2001-2002 Chevrolet 2500HDs and 3500s in a more rounded (and better-looking IMO) shape than the new power domes...

I wonder how much it would run to get an HD hood cut down? What do you guys think would be a fair rate?
