Default Aftermarket hoods - SHOW EM!

Post some pics of aftermarket hoods please. Flatout and Jetz your hoods suck, stay out. Or maybe I'm just not crazy about spending 1700 on a hood Would like to see some RK Hi Rise hoods like Kamil's especially.

Thanks!!

I really like the Kenny Bell, and that Ecklers high Rise right above my post. I have always like the Cowl hoods as long as the lines are not too sharp.

That twin turbo hood is bad as well!

Good Luck My Friend

The Caravaggio blower hood is one of my favorites. Does anyone have pics of Caravaggio's high rise hood? I've been trying to decide between the two.

That is the Haltech Stinger hood. I believe it is discontinued, but if I ever find one I'm dropping everything and getting it ASAP! BEST LOOKING HOOD EVER!

That's what I did when I found mine. They are very hard to come by, but I think another company started reproducing them in fiberglass.

Here's another that shows more of the rear area of the hood:
