Question Where Can I Find This Hood???

Anyone know where I can find this hood?? What do ya'll think of it? I think it looks pretty good. Still has the look of the older Ram Air style but also has the agressive look of the newer WS6 hoods. If anyone knows the website where I could find one of these that would be awesome. Let me know what yall think of it.

http://www.carhoods.com/HoodPages/PF-512.htm This one is close - and IMO looks better than that taller one.

There was this one guy I knew that I met at a car show and he had that same hood but on an LS1. I had never seen that and he told me that he had it custom made when he was working at VFN Fiberglass. So I would call some of the companies out there and ask them if they could make you that hood. I think it definitly looks great.

okay, I'm seein the hood on 2 different websites. They look kinda different on either website also. On VFNfiberglass.com they have a 5-inch cowl hood. On blownenginerring.com it's a 4-inch cowl hood and the design at the front of the scoops looks a little different. Heres the pics. Tell me which one you think looks better. The one from VFN looks like the one I like.


The one on VFNfiberglass


The one on Blownengineering.com

Another question, I don't know too much about about this stuff, but what is the difference between the Lift Off kind, Extended Lift Off kind, and the Bolt On? Which one is better? The price on the lift off kind is farely cheaper.

That license plate is pretty thoughtful. I think we can all relate.

Extended is for funny cars with stretched front ends
Lift off has no place for stock bolts and has to be put on with hood pins only
Bolt on just bolts on like a stock hood would

I don't know man, I kinda like this hood. I like the fact that it sticks up a little more but still looks like the stock ram air. I like it Plan on gettin me one as soon as I get my T/A and can afford it.
