    I've not seen them in person, but I always hear that you have to cut a huge chunk out of your hood to get those aerocatches in there.

    Of course. It's really the only down side I see to them but than again big hole, small hole, it's still a hole in your hood.

    I suppose that's true. My worry with them is installing.

    When you drill a hole, you can't really make it "crooked" where as cutting the shape out for the aero's...with it being elongated and all, there's a greater opportunity for operator error. I suppose that's why one would have a pro do it.

    I do think thy look slick though.

    Ron Leonard (Spydershaft) has them and they look pretty nice:nice: I met him at the track last year.
    Cutting a hole in your own hood could be tough to swallow if it's wrong! These I don't think I would hesitate paying a pro to do.

    Kind of hard to see in this pic.

    As it is in carpentry I guess. Measure twice, cut once. :D

    I think they have them installed on their Vanquished SEMA car. I'll try to get out there this week and see if I can get some pics of them on a car. If I like them, I might even buy them and install them on mine. Will be a few weeks though but if I do, I'll post some pics.

    Interesting options. One appears way too large in my opinion. Is no one making a version close to what is on the Shelby KR or the old Shelbys? That would be ideal in my opinion.
