Default Aftermarket hood availability

Are there ANY aftermarket hoods available for the 2005 and up Dakotas yet. I've seen that Dodge offers a model of dakota with a forward facing hood scoop, but are there any aftermarkets available you know of??

From what I have been noticing, the answer to this is still no. There was a shaker hood available at one time, but I am not sure if that ended up making it into mass production or not. :-\

Kansas if your talking about the hood on the RT it's non functional I've seen the scoop on eBay for sale just paint and bolt on as for the link I posted I don't know if you could ingest water or not it seems they would have that figured out instead of getting sued,how many times have we've seen people question would a CAI gulp some water,good question about the shaker, I sure would ask some questions though before purchasing it,maybe some of the Gen2 guys have some answers http://www.btgmotoring.com/Merchant2...Code=KRGHD-206

Yea a new hood is at the bottom of my list,if I had $1300 or so burning a hole in my pocket,I'd drop my truck and get some new wheels.

I doesn't go straight in for that reason. It goes in the front, but it goes around and into the tb from the back. I've checked into it. I thought that same thing until I saw it in person on a 2002 Dak.
