Default COWL HOOD??

what mods do u guys think would classify me to get a 3inch cowl hood? I want one but I dont think the mods I have are good enough! I have bbk L/T's O/R H pipe Borla exhaust,pullies,gears and CAI with a tune. In the future a year or so will be a hellion turbo! Just give me some opinions what you guys think? thanks

its just a hood, lol, get it if thats what you like...naturally you normally have it for clearance issues with usually a blower, but if you want the hood go for it! idc if its stock lol

Cowl FTW! Just get it, looks much better than stock IMO.

the only real NEED for a cowl hood is if you have an intake or PD blower that doesn't clear your stock hood. aside from that its all looks. and like said, your not rebadging your car and its definately not rice so if you have the cash for it go ahead, cowl hoods are sex.

1.5-3" aren't too bad, anything more is way overkill.

I would say a 5.4l swap wouldn't be too bad to have under a 3"

Get a 3"...they are sex. Who gives a late night crap about if you're bone stock and just have appearance mods. They make the car look SOOO much better in my opinion. I say go for it homes.
