Ram Air Hood...How do I get this hood for my Vibe?!

Check this Vibe out on eBay. It's the only picture I have ever seen with this type of Ram Air hood. I've seen some other kind with two air flow vents but this is way better looking and I would love to get it. Does anyone know where I can get this? Maybe it's a dealer's option?

Dude that ain't no ram air hood. The only ram air hood for the vibe is made by slp. Its around 600 bucks. The one from that pic is a cheap plastic box that you glue to the top of your hood. LOL AKA a piece of garbage.

sure, it is pretty retarded to get one of those fake plastic tape on ram air imatations, but, is it more retarded than paying a minimum of $600 + paint for a ram air hood when you have no ram air? i wouldn't get either (unless i could afford to provide the cost of hood, paint and necessary mods to make the actual hood function)

You know, i hate to drag dead topics back from the grave... but that vibe was sold by the same dealership that sold me my vibe. Beck & Masten Pontiac GMC in Houston. What's interesting is i remember seeing it siting in the back of the lot when i was shopping, the guy said he couldn't sell that car to me. I guess i know why now.

that's the slp hood. i'm sure it's a pretty penny. w/ the exception of finding it on ebay for $400 last summer (when i shuld have got one), they are just under $700 USD plus shipping and paint/install. not very affordable in my opinion!

I like the look of the slp hood - but not for $700. If it was carbon fiber (ie I don't have to paint it) and around $400 - I'd jump on it. Then put a short-ram in that would feed in the vent on it.

There's a Canadian company that makes CF hoods that I BELIEVE are ram-air if I remember correctly. Also if you mention you saw the PAS ad you get an additional 10% off
