At first I thought maybe I should change out my cowl hood for this RTF hood but then I saw how it looked in white on the Trufiber site. Ugh not so good in white!

yea, those pics will be updated fairly soon. It's hard to tell what a hood looks like in that primer color of white (or whatever color it is)

I already know it won't look good in high performance white by seeing the white gel coat on that RTF hood. White makes it hard to see the lines/contours of the center scoop area which is what makes the hood look so good.

Youd be surprised how nice it would look in perf white. Youll have alot more contour reflections with clear on there and the camera angle in that catalog shot is horrible.
