Cowl induction hood

I'm thinking of getting the Cervini's cowl hood, but i'm not so sure it's what I want. I think it and the SS hood both look good, but the I hear the cowl looks better. But, my question is, why is it better? Everyone says get the cowl hood it goes with the lines of the car better. Maybe but I think the SS hood does too and i've heard the cowl hood cools the engine compartment better. Having an opening in front and back of the SS hood doesn't cool better than the cowl hood? I'm just wanting a second opinion. I don't want to buy something i'm not going to be happy with and have to sell it after I get it. Thanks.

It sounds like you want US to pick your hood for you. Buy the hood that looks good to you.

...but the I hear the cowl looks better
Says who? What do they matter, it's your car. Are they buying the hood?

Don't you look at other people's cars and think "I would've done that differently..." ? That's what it's all about. Do your car your way.
