Is that really worth to get aftermarket hood for CAI? Originally posted by ThunderBat:
None of our cars really benefit from the "ram air" function or if so to a very small degree. Looks like Thunderbat already answered both of those....

I'd say go with the GTX, the WS6 I think for some would look weird on a sedan. Plus with that huge bulge in the hood I think the spoiler would need to be upgraded as well to even it out.

I'm going with the 414 dollar hood. It'll cost me about 100-200 extra but worth it. I'm going w/ the ws6 hood which i think will look good on my car and the discount will help nicley.

I think the dark tint/Chrome rims, and some nice grilles will compliment the hood nicley, it shouldnt look weird on a 4 dr since it looks sporty enough.

Look how cool Chico's hood turned out. By the time you buy a hood, ship it and then pay to have it painted you can buy the scoop and have it installed and painted probably for less.
None of our cars really benefit from the "ram air" function or if so to a very small degree. The hood is more of a showpiece, granted a pretty darn good one but I think my car would have looked just as good with a nice scoop installed...and I wouldnt have fitment issues. chico's is the only scoop i have seen that looked good, IMHO stickons belong on ricers (except chico's  )
