My car is up at Autobuffs right now getting some work done,including replacing the stock hood. I'm also getting the Tigershark front end. I had been bouncing around both the Ecklers High Rise(MCM knock off hood) and the Tigershark hood. I finally decided on the Ecklers yesterday. Did I make a mistake?

Yes...stock hood looks fine.
Seriously though, it's your money and your discerning eye that matters. If you like it then go with it.

I agree that the stock hood is very nice. Unless you are going with the MCM with the clear carbon fiber center, I wouldn't spend the bucks on a new hood. I like the tiger shark hood from the side view, but can't decide if I like the hump look from the front view. I admit that I've never seen it in person...only pics. I'm a huge fan of the tigershark nose, and will go there some day. Good luck.
My stock hood was damaged. I am going to have to replace it either way. As we all know,if you must replace,might as well upgrade.
It only makes sense to upgrade to what pleases you and your check book..... If you like a specific hood and can afford to go with what you want, do it.
