Vented hood is more practical if you are replacing it IMO. If you are going to spend the money, getting more airflow under the hood is a nice incentive to go with the DV.


Another FitFreak on here; DaveVM has a vented hood (not sure if it is the same or not) on his SSM

What's the total weight savings over stock going to OEM-style carbon?

Looks really sweet BTW. I always see in my mind a CF spoiler and front lip to go with the CF hoods.

lol, I like both. The vented hood is a bit on the aggressive side but gives that much needed extra breathing room. The OEM is pretty sexy too, very sleek.

I am a man divided
