Default Ram/cowl hood group buy....COME ON PEOPLE

Would anyone be interrested in a group buy on a cowl or ram hood?? Im seriously considering buying a fiberglass hood but $600.00 is a hard pill to swollow. lol. I dont really know much about group buys, but have run across a couple of old ones in past threads while researching. Below are links to the two hoods i am considering. I havent made up my mind on wich one yet, but.....

Would anyone else be interrested??

This is for the dual ram air style. -Pretty freakin sharp!

This is for the cowl design. This one is pretty cool too..

Of course i would have to do some research to find the cheapest supplier. so far, the cheapest i can find is about $520.00.

Come on people......lets make our Dakotas bad ***! lol

I find it annoying how the cowl on the 2nd truck is missing the U-shape bodyline in the middle

ya, that cowl in the 2nd pic looks gay.

I can get a steel cowl hood at my local speed shop for $450. and I'm just gonna paint it myself. I just have acouple other things I have to buy/fix first.

I'd go 400 bucks for the 1st one. But 650 is out of the question.
Hell, the 2nd one is nice also. But it's too much cash for my blood.

if that's an actual functional cowl induction hood i think it would be great. might be something to look into after the 408 gets in there, but for now... way too expensive. im saving for the 408 right now, then the 727 torqueflite transmission, then the 9.25 rear end with 3.90 gears.
