Thinking about new hood.
Soo I have been looking for an extremely aggressive looking hood and I think I found the one I have been looking for its is the Ram Air Type IV Hood with Billet Inserts from Cervini I was wondering if anyone has ever had/installed/seen this hood in person and get there .02 on it also how would it look on a stock GT with no aftermarket front fascia on it yet since I cant seem to figure that one out yet I live in a hilly area with 15 speed bumps on the way to my house (I counted) and really dont know what would be best I think im gonna just get a CDC Classic Chin spoiler since they arent super expensive and if i f*** it up I wont flip and ill know that a body kit is just not a good idea for where im at but anyway I defintely want a different hood so any opinions suggestions about this one or maybe something similar that you know of and have seen and thought looked pretty mean just let me know =) thanks.

Look at the Cervini's C-series hood. That is the eleanor style hood I think Texotic is referring to. I also like the Cobra R hood:

Or the Steeda Cowl hood looks good too. (I like cowl hoods. Not so much the ram air styles.)

sig sums up my opinion 
Most functional hood on the market.
Be sure your hood mathces your cdc though, I myself think the lines of the cowls on these cars dont macth up very well, Ive seen a few pretty bad hood body kit combos, but everybodys got there own taste.

Ya not aggressive enough for me =( but I will agree it is a slick hood. Oh ya another question I was looking through my Manual in my car and acme across this red flyer that says PROVIDE TO CUSTOMER TripTunes(TM) then directions on how to use it and where it is but I cant seem to find it.... anyone have this and have a better idea of where it is like in a random corner or something? It says the Glove Compartment but I am not having any luck in there.....
