The hood scoop is not. Sorry, fake scoop. So whats next, 426 hemi emblems? Im also very aware of the heritage and history of the mopars. Just because someone says the fake hood looks cheezy doesnt mean they are wet behind the ears. Reminds me of the guys that go to pepboys and buy those 3m double sided sticky fake scoops and put them on their yugo. But, thats just my opinion.

the gills are fine i agree
the thing is most hoods today are all for style and just to get cool air into the engine area.....the filters are no longer on top of the engine...therefore nearly all hoods are for looks....just like the stock challenger scoops are "fake" as well.
