Let the sun pound on that for a while!

 

Why don't you do it?

 

I might like something like that but would want it body colored

 

I'm trying to save up for a bumper. And Waiting on a bumper to come out from one of the offroad co.

 

Our hoods are aluminum already, so I can't see it saving much weight. Not to mention that our trucks are tanks and a couple pounds isn't going to mean squat.
So that the leaves the mall crawlers / show truck crowd that have money to burn. I suppose there might be a few of those around here.

And before anyone thinks I'm bagging on that particular crowd, I'll be honest and say my truck primarily identifies as a pavement princess commuter / grocery getter, with mild delusions of off-road grandeur.

 

My buddies got the carbon hood on his gen 3. And it’s definitely not a mall crawler. It looks damn good. Gen 2 with carbon on the old man’s rig absolutely helps pull that heat out.

I like this one from Ironman, gonna need a big ol stack of pennies

 

I stand corrected on the mall crawler part. (Not necessarily all.)
And that DOES look damn good.

Hadn't thought about the heat extraction element assuming the louvers are functional on the GEN3 one. They appear to be.

 

Yea I’d definitely recommend it for the heat extraction alone.

 

With the vents on top of the hood, doesn't that allow rain to get into the engine area? If so, that is probably not a good thing.

Pair this up with carbon fiber fenders and a long travel suspension kit.

 

Not really an issue

you mean like this? Lol

 

.
Can I have

 

It's so dumb, i want a vented carbon fiber hood, but no one makes them for the GX470

 

Here’s my buddies Gen 3 with the carbon hood

 

Must be this guy at 7:00 minutes. That how I found the carbon hood.
