The Alero 442 had a retrofitted w-25 OAI hood scoop system on it. I think it looked horrible. #3 gets my vote.

I would def. be interested. I really wouldn't even car what hood it was, if it was made, I would buy it. Anything is better than what I got now.

And by me saying I would by it, I really mean my g/f would buy it for me.

We are not in a rush for this. We want to see how the kit turns out, if they do a good job we'll see what they want $ wise and what paulyb can come up with on photochop.

Patience man, patience.

Hood number one is the same picture as above that you have posted. You also changed my quote to state #2, I originally said #1.

Remember that hood#1 was a photoshopped picture.

Right now Im working a few diffrent angels of the hood design, Im trying to keep the bulge from the ram air scoops low and smooth to keep in the orignal style of the stock hood.

I look at the grand am ram air and its to bulgey i think. The alero has a sleek look to it and I think to make the ram air flow nicely with the stock alero, it has to be smooth as well..

any opinions?

I dont know if this is going to help with the idea or not.. but it kinda makes sense to me.. Where the black lines are.. that'll be like the slant or the angle.. whatever you wanna call it.. the "dip" down where that particular part of the hood is lower than the rest to allow for air to flow directly into the scoops, rather than take a trip up over the hood and enter the scoop from the top- so basically from the opening of the scoop, and FORWARD, that particular area will be.. say.. an inch, mabey two inches lower than the rest of the hood? (the center of the hood staying at the original height)

I believe that was the original idea anyways- but, here we go.. (I need to invest in photo shop)



EDIT: Either that^^ or its going to look somewhat like those white hoods that someone posted.. I like both ideas-

hey guys.. don't mean to smudge anything up.. but is this the design of what you are trying to go for for hood 3



Except tone down the aggressive bulge caused from the designing of the GAGT.
