    Owner not around for me to ask.

    Have not seen one with a hood scoop before. Or any hoods for sale with them.

    Guessing a custom job. Looked well done.

    I myself would like it if a little smaller scoop. IMG_5534.jpg

    I can't say I recognize it. I have seen one complete carbon hood with a scoop built in, the name of it escapes me right now (VIS Racing maybe?). That one is a cowl hood and might have just been grafted into the original hood.

    Did find this one. Any cons to a fiberglass hood?

    No cons really, takes time to fit them and trimming/sanding may be needed. That is the carbon fiber one I mentioned.

    Cons to fiberglass hoods: Poor fit and finish, panel gaps, hood latch issues, cracks / spidering of paint, lack of underhood insulation, poor resale / undesirable for most buyers etc.
    Pros: design choices, cost, weight (sometimes).

    For me, stock hood on this for sure.
