Hey guys , first off thanx for the comments. an to the last two. I was in that boat also about the scoop. But in person and on the car it total flows.

Now!!first off much props to Autokits they where awesome from day one. Jamie and Alex have been great. so the hood??? Packing was super ,the hood quality is super the finish on it was like glass also as you can see. fitment was right on,all tho I did have to remove the latch spring( gonna mod it) so the hood would be flush. if you leave the spring on there is a small gap but nothing crazy I'm just ****. LOL. The only things are :There are "No" holes for the washer nozzles or the plumbing and the side vents have covers on the under side of them for shipping and are a PIA to remove them cause the plastic screws always strip. But overall I give it a A+ . I mod I'm glad I waited for. I have gotten 5 comments on the hood already and was only out to play golf and dinner with the wife.
Oh almost forgot for guys with SC or turbo this is a must as the amount of hot air that is allowed to escape is amazing and I can hear my SC so much more. LOL Whistling for the WIN.

Great product well made ,finish is super and the company was great. Thanx Autokits.

The AKX hood once installed on the car looks way more aggressive then the Seibon TS hood. I like it a lot plus the fitment looks better then the Seibon one. Especially around the area by the top of the fender. The Seibon dips down.

The underside of the hood looks closed off to the side vents. Why would they make them non-functional???

It came that way for shipping, Just a few plastic screws and they came right off.

Oh man that hood would be PERFECT without the raised "U" in the middle. The vents alone would look great...looks too ricey with the raised middle portion.
