I really like the Kaminari Hood.  If I were to get one, that would be it.

Looks like Mr Lesperance has experience with the last hood that you note.

Drop him a note. He'll let you know upside and downside if any.

Rokie has also done a hood swap.

I love the first hood! Have you ever seen the cervinis hood in person? It's really heavy. Also have you seen the VIS invader hood? I know a place you can get it for a real good price!

just going to throw in a few questions. I've seen these hoods before but never really gave them a good look over. Are they functional? All these openings, isn't it lame when not a one of them helps bring in cooler air. What do they weigh? And the biggest question that would make the most difference for me would be price. How much do these cost??

If we're talking looks alone either of the first 2 you posted would be awesome

Huh? The one with the 2 vents is the APC crap one. This is VIS. You can get it for a great price at http://www.namotorsports.net for like 575 shipped I believe.


 

 

 

Also my hood only weights like 8 lbs. It's carbon fiber inside and out, with a layer of fiberglass on the inside for protection and durability.

How about the concept FR200.  I love that car.  Too bad Ford never did anything with it.
