Default hood replacement opinions

i need some ideas on what hood would look sharp on that SGT. I got all my back pay today!!! yay, 16 grand to spend on that, and a little left over for gas. MRBODYKIT.com has a selection, but im stuck. the CS6 is nice, but non functional, just like every other body part on the SGT. I demand something functional, the steeda hoods i really like, but dont think it would fit the countours of that car. what do you think?

What are you thinking as functional?
Heat extractors or ram air style?

Ram air hoods are just as functional as someone blowing on your CAI air filter or into your air cleaner box lol.

True gains would be to have a direct hook up from the hood openings to your mass air flow valve.
Heat extractors are helpful for FI applications, if not, it's only bragging rights.

How about ordering the Supershaker now that it's available and killing 2 birds w/ 1 stone.
