The suncoast hood is great, I've had one on my 3rd gen for almost 3 years now with zero issues. Some fiberglass hoods have had stress fractures and such, but these are a thick and beefy hood. When it arrives and you send it for paint, just make sure they take a long board to it and knock down any high spots, mine has 2 from the factory, but only I really notice them. For installation, do yourself a favor and get the mopar hood shim kit as you will need to fine tune the fit vertically, I've got almost 1/4" of shims in mine. Also, pick up the CAI that they recommend, I already had one and had to modify it and the hood to get them to mate up properly, so save yourself the work.

It's a unique hood, in the 3 years I've only seen 3 others in all of Alberta. I went with this one because EVERYONE and their dog has the SRT-10 hood out here and I want to be different. The functionality only makes a difference at highway speeds, so if you're on a long cruize you'll see the difference with a small bump in MPGs, at least I did.
