Looks great. Fitment actually looks better than most pics I've seen. How is fitment in person?

Good choice on sticking with the 93-95 front bumper. I think its the best looking option out there.

albertomg... thanks for the compliment. Yes, I know that most brag about how fitment on their aftermarket hoods is "perfect" only to see the hood in person and find that it has "some" gaps that weren't mentioned, but this one is incredible. Dead nuts perfect in keeping with the stock hood's dimensions.

As others have mentioned, cooling is the main benefit. I took data with my old "RotaryExtreme" AD9 hood and compared to the stock hood, I saw an average 3 to 5C drop in engine operating temps. That makes a big difference here in Phoenix duing the summertime.

To Slow... awesome kit. Would like to see more detailed pics of that motor??
