Old-school RS hood

Everybody I know keeps telling me I need to get a hood like the old-school RS (hoodscoop + vents). I know that hood will not fit on my 2004 WRX. Is there one out there that will? And that doesn't look like crap? Not that I have the money right now, but I can add it to the wish-list.

Re: Old-school RS hood

I would also like to know of a vented hood for the late-model Impreza.

Re: Old-school RS hood

The c/f Seibon hoods have "bonus vents" in addition to the scoop (which comes in normal or reverse). They are a bit "extreme," compared to the GC vents...

You guys are just jealous of my "speed holes."

Re: Old-school RS hood

I always liked the 2.5RS hood. I like it better than the 02 / 03 WRX hoods and way more than the newest hoods with the huge scoops.

Re: Old-school RS hood

Well, the Seibon hood is hideous. Too much venting, not enough style. The huge hoodscoop on the new WRX and even bigger on the STi is a functional part, though, and I don't mind functional huge hoodscoops. They look meaner.
