      Its just like the Z-roc hood for the camaro, Not functional in anyway when you buy it but you can make it functional but theres no air-box setup for that hood.

        That hood CAN be made functional, but it'll take some dryer hose, a filter, and a whole lotta duct tape :D

              i have this hood on my car looks sweet. and it can be made functional but is a PITA to do and not really worth the effort and the money on the material to do so (also makes engine compartment to clutter with all the ducting in sight). but it does help out in letting engine compartment stay cooloer buy having the big hole in that hood for the heat to escape.

                  well u might see dead people out your side windows after you hit them cause it is a pain in the butt to see over this hood. also i have been pulled over and warned about this hood by my state police for it obscureing my view of sight to the road way

                      Yup that's my Hood... okay not my car but i Have that hood see....


                      I had tried to make it functional by making an air box out of aluminum and hooked it up by dryer hose... but it didn't work the metal was to flimsy and would collapse at 3000 rpm and starve the engine of air. I thought about redoing it with fiberglass, plexi, or possibly steel but haven't got around to doing it.
