I got into an accident and ended up just buying a new CF vented hood because A. it looks cool, B. had functional vents and C. it's somewhat lighter. I think I paid somewhere around 750 for my hood brand new.

Regarding your cooling issue, what are the symptoms? Do you have an aftermarket radiator or OEM? What are your temps at?
Track Oil Temp Issues, looking for options.

NA, Stock Radiator Water&Waterwetter, 34 Row Setrab, CJM Oil Pan, Mocal Thermostatic Plate, CZ Power Steering Cooler. Air Temp Avg 70F, Peak ECT~240F, Peak Oil~270F stock gauge, takes about 10-12min to get there. I've eliminated everything else that could be causing issues besides airflow. Like you said the CF ones look better IMO but I don't think it will justify the added cost.
