Default Durflex concept hood.

I don't know how to put a pic of it on here but the hood I found on eBay. I think it looks cool but the wife doesn't like it wtf.

What do you dudes think?

Guessing it's this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevrolet-Corvette-C4-84-96-Duraflex-GT-Concept-Hood-/151270040674?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ACorvette&hash=item233865a462&vxp=mtr

"We recommend the usage of hood pins for all hoods" - No thanks, I'll pass.

Looks like they have a carbon fiber hood available also, and a bunch of other stuff.

Well, since you're asking for opinions, this duraflex hood with the NACA ducting looks alot nicer to my eye:



It's also almost $300 cheaper
You might also check out ToledoPro hoods. I bought one for my '84 (with the correct x-fire ducts), and found the build and fit quality to be excellent.
