    because its CF its 1/3 of the weight of an OEM Hood...so when at higher speed the hood flexes with the air going over the top of the hood...I had it on my truck for about 9 months before I traded it for some other parts...but my engine bay never got any dirtier than it was with the scoopless hood (OEM 1 my truck came with)...:thumbsup:

    yeah i really liked it...and it matched the BSP really well...:D

    but what I traded for was more than the value of the hood...so I had to do it...

    Owen, don't do it. Keep the scoop off. Better to not have it get in the way when you wheel. You have an Off Road...let's keep it that way.
