And sure, he can try to make his own hood but the chance of success is pretty low (not a direct dig at you WF, plenty of people can't do this). Most people can't even attach a fiberglass scoop to a fiberglass hood and end up using pop rivets.

In this case spending the $200-300 bucks is a good idea, since building his own looks like it would be a whole bucket full of fail.
Ah turkey, pan thats the name I was trying to think of. and at the bucket of fail comment.

...im just saying for his car, it would be nice to have something other then the usual for clearance. if he wants, then go get a 2.5 cowl instead of a 4 inch cowl
