Opinions on Hawks Third gen hoods

So has anyone got any of their products? Been looking around for a functional ram air hood to go on my 89 GTA that will still use the stock mounting equipment. I found one on Hawks. Opinions?

It's only functional if you can get or make the air box kit to go with it.
Personally, I think these hoods are incredibly ugly and totally ruin the lines of the car. Not to mention destroying the drag Cx.

I got the airbox for it. And I guess beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Thanks for the heads up though.

Never planned on bouncing it off the line anyway.
