Just figured I'd put this out there, incase it hasn't already been put out there, in addition to the 00-05 Monte Carlo Ram Air Hoods, MPD also has the brand new Aftermarket Ram Air Hoods for the 06-07. Enjoy New Monte Owners.

Wow!!! I like that. Really a nice looking piece. By the looks of the pricing, by the time you had it all painted and installed, it will run you around $1500+. This is for us Canucks.

We really have not decided yet. We probably wont even book until two months out. Been watch the market for the last couple of years and the best deals come when they are desperate to finish selling all their cabins. Even seen two for one plane fairs to the cities of departure to sell them.

Hmm, I think I actually like that. Needs some coloring change to offset the intake just a bit more. Maybe a bit of vinyl... And why on earth didn't that fool paint the underside? it would look so much better... even if it wasn't the same as the body, but the black you can hardly see the details.
I'd like the heat exchanger vents too... maybe some led's to add a bit of a glow?
Before I'd actually spend the dough... I'd rather see a car with it on... get an idea of the rigidity and durability of it and such.

I've read that people that buy MPD hoods are very happy with them... more so than the knock off hoods you get from PFYC.
Just sent them an email to see if they could get that design on the 04's.

I really like that hood - has a mean look to it, but still looks as though it could be factory.

Tough question - two very different hoods on two very different cars! I think they both look great, compliment the cars and have a nice factory appearance to them, which is always something I like to see in any mod :)

so then u would agree that each seem to go with that monte gen better than if i got urs on my 07 right?..

Hard to say really... each mod may net 3-5hp or so at best?

I could only wish it were that cheap. Between the cost of the hood, shipping, prep and paint, it cost me well over that amount. But worth every penny. Looks mean coming down the road at you. 1 of a kind around here.
On a scale of 1-10 I''''d give it an 8, but that''''s just becuse it''''s fiberglass. The fit was pretty good to start with, minor shaping had to be done by the bodyshop. It bolted right on with all the original hardware from the stock hood. I haven''''t noticed any movement or vibration while I''''m driving down the road, so it''''s pretty solid. All in all I''''m pretty happy with it.
