Default Shot my hood/ need a scoop

Ok so I shot my hood using it as rest yesterday. Ya I know dumba$$. So now instead of doing body work and paint I could put on a hood scoop and cover it up. I have searched here but did not see much. Maybe a rumble bee scoop would be find but I wanted to see if there was any true ram air scoop that I could use. I like the SRT hood but dont want to spend that kind of money. Any help would be appreciated.

My scoop is the result of a hunting accident as well. But unlike you, mother nature got mine. Parked in the woods on a day with 35 mph+ wind gusts and a pine limb fell on the hood. I popped 85% of the dent out without issue and the last of the dent popped up the other way and the paint spider webbed on me and a fleck the size of a quarter popped right off.
So the economical fix was a painted scoop. Just used clear nail polish over the exposed metal to seal it and prevent rust and stuck the scoop on. I got mine at StylinConcepts.com, they've got a decent assortment and can match up a good list of paint codes, much cheaper than buying one primed and having a local shop paint it...

05king thanks for the laugh. I LMAO when I read this thread. If I did that my wife would never let me live it down. As far as the hood it wouldn't hurt to call around to your local salvage yards and see what they have. You might be suprised.
