Interesting, on the fence if I like that or not.
 
Fugly, but also it's made in Australia; shipping to the US might cost
as much as the part itself.
 
Not for me
 
Wow, Nice! I’m considering installing that scoop bonnet along with a part time kit & bleach sprayer under my rear tires.

Thanks for sharing!

Any investment in 80’s is bad ass.
 
Looks good to me. Have been thinking over the past couple years that it's only a matter of time until one of our Mud vendors starts making scooped replacement hoods. This one has vents too...dig it.
 
I want to see how the air is flowing
 
I have a vented hood on my black truck and I have been seriously thinking about molding it up and doing carbon fiber just because I think it would be cool. It wouldn't be a cowl hood, but would have vents which seems to be getting harder and harder to find. And when done in CF I bet you could drop close to 35lbs.

I have watched this series of videos probably 5 times and it isn't hard it is just a lot of prep work.

You could install a huge hood scoop and cut out the steel underneath. Something like this would allow you to cut out almost half of the hood. My hood scoop takes up about 1/3 of the hood but it's not carbon fiber.
