Here's my ACP Heat Extractor. There are a lot of nice choices out there, it comes dn to what you like. I went this way because I needed a functional hood to help remove heat to keep my SC beast cool. ACP has the mold to make the Stinger hood (post just above mine).

I love my extractor hood. You can see the heat vapors coming out in some weather conditions. I did see some drop in temps all around after putting it on.
