Hood recommendations

I have been contemplating, for a long while now, getting an after market hood for my beast. The two I have been leaning towards are both Cervini's, the 2" cowl induction and the C-series hood (Eleanor hood).

Here's pics of the two I have listed.

I like the cowl best, but I like the lines of the Steeda hood best.

I go for the Eleanor hood, but I'm biased.

I agree, the Steeda looks more well defined cowl(factory with aggression).

I really like the Steeda hood but of your two options you gotta go with the cowl.
