Help me pick a hood!

[04SilveradoMykk]

Hey guys, I understand this kind of decision is highly personal taste... but let me get your opinion on a new hood for my NBS RCSB. Which one is your favorote design, or maybe you like stock the best?! If you know of another design post up with a link!

keystone twin scoop ram air


Cowl hood


Cowl hood with scoop vents


Cowl hood with single ram air scoop

I'm wanting the the twin scoop ram.

Whats the major differences between fiberglass and steel hoods? I'm also looking at new hoods but i dont know how good fiber glass hoods are. Is your truck mostly for street?

[Bradford]

I say just the cowl hood.

[chevy6998]

I say stock looks the best, but if your itching for something just do the cowl only, the rest are to RICKY RACER. And get a steel hood. Friends don't let friends use fiberglass!

[WildChevys]

i'm always a fan of the cowl

[thumpintruckred]

STEEL. unless u need to save weight for the track. Fiberglass breaks easier and the flexing can sometimes mess up the paint. I had my body guy tell me VERY CLEARLY not to get a glass hood.

And I'd go cowl. I had one on my old 99 silverado and I loved it's look

Mine is the fiberglass keystone and I have had no problems with it. It fits excellent also.

[siveradoss22s]

I say cowl hood with grille painted to match to give it the sporty look.

Go with the Cowl hood, you won't regret it.

[NoSelfEsteem]

I like the last one.....if not that then my 2nd is the plain cowl...bottom line w/ your bad a$$ ride I'd go FiberGlass for the weight issue..its street. I went steel because to be honest, weight wasn't an issue....after adding 500 lbs in susp and tires. Also...in the event of a front end collision...a fiberglass hood is easier to fix where a steel hood is unfixable. As far as I know.

Marine SGT, after looking at your baddass SS in your sig... I think the cowl hood is the winner. Thanks everyone.

stock or cowl, hood scoops look cheesy

[Natedog_74]

Cowl FTW!!, I don't care for hood scoops. Looks like nostrils to me.

There is a group purchases thread Cowl hoods there are like 210 less if others buy.

I just got a Cowl from AIM,,YA YA there bad for drop parts but for hoods I am pretty pleased as is another member here who got a hood,,They shipped fast , sent a damaged hood, I refused it , they confirmed Fed Ex that I did refuse it and shipped another one that same day..

Hood I have now is perfect ... I paid 218.00 Plus 99 shipping to a business... I am pretty sure they will price match or at least come real close to another legit deal for the same product which for a cowl hood is exactly the same at AIM as it is in the Group purchases thread..And the benefit is no waiting on a group of people to have to get it ..

You won't regret getting a cowl hood! They add that agressive look to a truck.

[phatchevy06]

I would have said the cowl or the cowl with single scoop ...oh and my god don't buy a fiberglass hood :LOL:

[blazenlo95]

Cowl fo sho!

[Golden]

Stock hood. The others are not so great. The only one I would even consider is the cowl, but I don't like the dip in the middle of it. I prefer a smooth cowl hood.

Yea I agree, I'm looking for a manufacturer that makes the cowl hood without the center valley.
