I hear ya. Feel pretty much the same. To me and my build, it has to provide some function, either to save weight, control aerodynamics, or increase power. The Chinese philosopher Confucius put it more poignantly, "All show and no go".

I choose this hood specifically for the intake vents. I am building a a new intake that will box into the opening when the hood closes. This will take advantage of Ram Air effect for more HP at speed. OK,OK. It is because it looks hot!

Jotech is still doing the buy-in deal for Club-tC members. My hood fits just about as good as the OEM. I haven't shimmed or adjusted yet either, though I still need to "dial it in" just a bit.
