I have the parts on hand but have not pulled the trigger to install a 2012 GT500 hood vent on my 2014 EB 3.5 F150. I want to lower the under hood temps because the turbos really heat things up under the hood. I have seen pics and I think it looks more factory than other attempts at hood scoops I have seen.

I was wanting to make my engine bay cooler as well. I was interested to see what the guys on here have done diy or purchased.

I have an '11 Lariat. Back in the summer of '12 when I started to make the truck my own, I was looking around on line to see what was available for the truck. I was thinking about hood scoops. But I didn't want those Cheesy "Stick On" things. So I was looking at aftermarket hoods with scoops. There was a company that had one that looked nice. I believe it was called Ram Air Hoods? I took a pic off line, and then use Photoshop Elements to place it on the truck. I actually liked it. But it was fairly expensive, plus it would of needed to be painted. So I decided not to do it. Now I wish I had. I really liked how it would of looked.
