Eh, not a fan of the look....

I like how the Mopar hood is subtle, yet mean looking.

I like the Mopar hood alot. The red one you posted doesn't look so bad for some reason. I wonder what it'd look like in black?

I bought a hood scoop off ebay one year ago. Returned it right away. Looked tacky and had zero functionality. If anyone looks close or pays attention to your truck you can tell it is not legit. Save up and get the real deal. My 2 cents.

I know what you mean, I bought a stick on hood scoop for my old 08 Sierra. Got it painted, installed, the thing started to melt first time any sun got on it! It got all warped and crappy looking. Then when I tried to take it off I put 2 dings in my hood, had to take it to a hail repair shop, cost me $200! I'd stay away from those things...

I also do not like "stick on scoops". Remember, stickers also "stick on" and we know who use those.

As for the two hoods above... The Mopar one for sure. I have heard bad stories of fitment issues on aftermarket glass hoods and experienced one first hand, which also happened to be a suncoast hood, which I believe is who makes the non-mopar one above.
