They are all built functional... but you have to hook them up to make them functional.

yes i do plan to make it into an actually hooked up Ram Air Hood... here's the plan... i will get the SR intake and then put one of the K&N filters that has an intake cone on the inside of the end of the filter as well and hook that up with a rubber hose....however the plan could change.this is the only one i can find that is similar to what i want:

Nice Job!That hood didn't come with ductwork & filter? I thought that's what made it functional.

the filter and ductwork is extra... go figure.. plus you still have to cut a hole in the top of your factory airbox.

The hood looks nice! I don't care much for the pins though, the smoother and less chrome the cleaner the look.

as i have stated in the past i really didn't want to put the hood pins on but i had a major hood gap and used them to get rid of the gap.

The hood looks great, but I gotta say the fit is terrible - tight to the right and wide gaps on the left (driver's side). Correct this and you have a sweet looking car.

Looks great Joe. Get it aligned so people will quit hasseling you.

easier said than done my main problem is the fact that the pins have become slightly unaligned and aren't holding a steady position...and i've already painted and drilled holes..... and the poopy heads didn't remove the metal disks to paint the hood
