It's a heck of a lot higher than my SRT hood!

That's pretty much the same thing I thought about it. The cowl is high enough so you know it is there but not so high that it gets in the way.

I still love these hoods but I cant bring myself to get it. There is something buggin me about it. Is it me or is the right and left side of the cowl (about midway up in the center) look kind of bubbled out, or higher than the front of the hood and the rear of the hood? It may just be the pictue angles that are messing with me but I feel that it kind of throws it off and is kind of unappealing to me. I'm in no way mazking fun of or knocking just wondering if anyone else sees what I see?

I see what you are referring to there and it is just the change in slope of the hood distorting the reflection. Believe me, if it was bulged I would never have put it on.

I do like it regardless, I hate being that guy that notices everything lol, I just had my hood painted last year and can point out every little flaw, gotta take it back to the painters here soon.

Nothing wrong with being that guy, if I hadn't been the one taking the pics I would have thought the same thing from just seeing those pictures.

An incredible change, I mean it was a sick lookin truck before but this just screams like drag racer or something. It looks awesome, I really want one now. How much do those babies run, and how much you pay to have it painted?
