New RK Sport Ram Air Hood

Hey guys wanted to get some opinions on this hood, I think it could look pretty good.

I like it, but my problem is it will look funny with the SS because of the mailslot on the bumper. Too much going on imo.

If the hood slot was farther back like the revolution one it might look better. Like this picture, and the black stripe helps hide the mailslot.

Yeah I hear what your saying, but IMO the Revolution hood just rises a little too much for me. That's why I like this design and the SLP Hood. I like how the revolution looks, just not on my personal car.

If they kept the hood the same height and pushed the slot back farther, it wouldn't look so bad. Its just that the two slots are so close to eachother.

i get what you're saying, and it's your car to do what you want with, its still a good looking hood, but unless there is a mailslot delete that comes with that hood, i wouldn't really like to get it

I could always pick up the mail slot filler from SLP.

the revolution hood is nice but from the inside of the car it makes a already bad situation worse

I agree with TaylorRyan......but if it were painted like the one above so the mailslot was hiden by the black, it would work just fine.

I don't think they make it like that but they would be easy to fill.
