I have it on mine and love it but I also went with ZL1 bumper to eliminate the mail slot that would have otherwise looked redundant.

i have it on mine , check out my build thread " SilverSlayer-SS " i definitely give this hood a 5 star on quality and fitment , although i don't drive it in the rain because my air intake is exposed under the scoop , and i don't have a closed air box , other than that its a great hood

Whoops my bad, I thought mine was the BBII and this one the BBIII. I have not seen this hood in person but I have seen this type of heat extractor on a hood and it looks great but as SilverSlayer-SS stated, an open top intake will be exposed to the elements. as for Seibon hoods, I have had 2 and they both fit well and look great. They make a great product.

This is the exact hood I am getting for My 1LE soon also. I don't questions the quality, fitment and/or looks of Seibon. They are TOP notch. Can't go wrong. Still brainstorming on ways to keep the rain out though. The heat extractors are perfect for my Top Mount TT setup (right over the turbos!) but certainly concerned about rain. Anyone have ideas on this?

Could you use the factory hood strut with it?

Also have you added hood pins or just not going to mess with it?

I also have a CAI intake on mine "has the cover to the air box" dos the vent on the hood over the air filter sit lower than stock part of the hood or is it about the same?

thanks for any help you can give me.
