Yeppers.......I like my 01 powerdome hood. Too bad they haven't kept the same height for the 07's.....can't even call that a powerdome.

This is the best looking one that I have found. Well in my opinion anyways. If I had something to do with my stock powerdome hood, I'd buy this one. There's someone on here that has one and he told me it was functional and open on the back side.

i know where one scoop is that is already painted in Sonic Blue, was suppose to go on firefighterjosh's truck when he wrecked it. he said that they found him a cowl hood for his 04 i told him they didnt and that no one makes it for the 04+ yet. come to find out it was for an 01-03, morons never test fitted it until it was painted.

i hear its for sale but idk how much they would want for it.
