except everything behind the grill that is not a solid air dam heats the air as it comes in.

That is why I would like a cold air intake via a ram air style intake on the hood.. But I don't like the big scoops.

I have to say the hood looks good. But it's hard to see over the center sometimes.
Re: New Hood from Autofab
Love this hood. Wonder how many Jon would have to sell to give a price break? Gofast group buy?

I have since eyeballed quite a bit of the autofab glass. It is top of the line fit and finish. I still can't justify the price on something I intentionally beat the shit out of but its a great product.

Re: New Hood from Autofab
I guess my question is why not make the hook look just like the Raptor? I would personally rather get a set of louvers from a Raptor and graft them in. Hey that's just me though.
Re: New Hood from Autofab
Weight and sheet metal cracking. I like the functional louvers without it looking like a rice rocket hood.

Agreed, I don't want my Bronco to look like a Transformer, but I do want to get some of the heat out from under the hood.Seabass wrote:Weight and sheet metal cracking. I like the functional louvers without it looking like a rice rocket hood.

Not sure if anyone else knows, but I have heard Mike McQueen has passed away back in April after a protracted illness. McQueen Fiberglass is still open, but Mike is no longer with us. RIP, Mike,you will be missed.

Re: New Hood from Autofab
Not a fan of louvers on the hood. They direct large amounts of dirt/dust at your windshield/face......
