Wish the cherry hood wasn't so much like the cali dream hood. Cali has a higher rear, like a cowl. Unlike this though, which seems to stay more true to stock hood shape all the way around.

But if these companies are gonna make ram air, at least divide the two and give it a more aggressive look that actually stands out. I'm almost afraid of simply not getting one since it'll be painted black I doubt anybody would notice.

*edit*
Google-fu to the rescue.

Not saying this exact shape, but found a quick example.

You can clearly see where it rises and divides between the two. Aggressive, sleek, stylish, and gives a meatier look. A more 3D look. The others look like just a couple holes put in the factory hood, not anywhere near as distinctive.
