Would be nice if you told us who the manufacturer of that one is and perhaps more details on it - like are the vents functional into the engine bay. Great looking hood.
Here's a Motor City Mold hood I had on my '00 - sure wish I had it back now. It would look great on my '03.
Functional heat extractor vent in center of hood.

I think it is a Carbon Creations. I have seen it several times before on different cars. I believe the vents are functional. It looks pretty good in the above pic, I think because of the angle and all painted the same, but in other pics I thought it had to much going on.

The Manufacturer is VIS. Its carbon fiber. Yes the vents are functional, sure lets the heat out. Here's a pic before I got it painted. https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/1...1-3c93b1b8741c

I posted that years ago...and others, that the centre support made the scoop look Like a pigs snout..or 'camel toe', but I'd rather see the CT on hoes than that hood!!! 
Now that hood looks MUCH better.
