I say go with the Super Duty hood. It's different than what most 'Birds have and it seems as though almost no one has that hood yet (or at least they aren't showing pictures of one installed).

As soon as I get it I'm going to paint it and put it on then I'll post the pic.It'll look a lot better this spring when she comes out of hibernation with new wheels and suspension.

I also thought about cutting a hole in the rear of the cowl and puting in a mesh grill.I think that would look pretty cool after painting it.
