Deciding on a hood. Help

Anyone know of a hood that will look good on my truck?

I was thinking the reflexxion or a saleen. But I opt the saleen out cause its aluminum and I live in Ok, and hail messes my hood up. like it did a few weeks ago.. Plus it's hard to find the insert.

Cervinis makes a great quality hood. I've got one on my mustang, had it for years and it still looks new.

They make a decent looking ram air hood for the F150.

I've always loved the Saleen but like you said it's almost impossible to find the inserts for them now. Why they would make more hoods than inserts is beyond me.

There is a guy on eBay selling a Saleen insert that was custom made, but he wants about as much for the insert as it cost for the hood - $300

I would good with the Saleen or the Cervini's myself

I'm also shopping for a hood and am between the harwood and reflexxions hood.
Do u guys think the harwood can be made out of carbon fiber? Just try to find the best looking and lightest hood.
