Default New hood option?

So just wondering

I have talked to a couple of my friends at RK Sport about the option of getting them talked into making a ram air hood for the 2011 Durango.
They are making one for the 2011 Charger(see pic)

They said they didnt think there would be enough interest for a hood for the Durango unless it was a dealer installed option only.
whats your thoughts on a hood like this? I am trying to get them to make me one.

I think it looks pretty badass, but is it real ram air or just a faux hood scoop?
I would definitely be interested in a few months!

I too would most likely be interested in one, as long as it has clean lines and doesn't require hood pins.

Also of course a reasonable price to gain the wife's approval would be a plus.

The hood is functional
all RK hoods are functional

this was the bottom of that Charger hood

I really want one of these so I am hoping to get them to make it

Really interesting, maybe also a good solution to give the Hemi more cold air as with the original small airfilter.
If they produce a hood like this, I'll buy one for mine. (If they ship that thing international)

My replacement hood was $1600 or so all shipped, installed and painted. Included functional ram air and rear cowl heat exchangers.
