has anyone seen or heard of an air hood replacement comming out for the jeep?

I haven't heard of one, but my body guy is itching to mold a charger scoop onto a jeep hood for me. Not sure I'm willing to pull the trigger on that one though.

dondula,

Sounds like a swell idea. They are called air scoops. Yes you can get aftermarket ones and have your body guy put it on...

we should bump heads sometime dondula.

I want it to be functional.

do you really want this scoop on your hood. me tinks that is ghetto or redneck, take your pick

No, I do not want the Charger hood. But, I would like a tasteful aftermarket setup.

i like the charger setup.. suttle and classy imo

I like the charger setup too. Of course if molded in, it wouldn't look just like that. With the distinctive eyebrow lines of our jeeps, I think some changes would need to be made to the charger scoop though. I definitely wouldn't want it to be a cut and paste job.

And it would absolutely need to be functional for me to do it.

Me thinks it's a bad idea.

I found this http://www.hambekcustoms.com/products.php click on jeep grand cherokee and scroll down. Too bad they don't make this for the 05-06 I contacted them to see if this was possible, but I doubt it.

P.S. jordoo it was nice seeing you on the road the other day, but just because you put an srt8 badge on your liberty dosen't mean you have an srt8 ;)

You couldn't pay me to put those hoods on my Jeep from that Link above. JMTC.

You could pay me - $47,790, the cost of a new SRT8 GC.

DonDula,

Mom said not to waste any more money because both of our libertys are leased and would be foolish spending.

I regret spending my money on those badges... But just because I did that does not give you the right to put a air scoop on the hood of your liberty...

Lets do lunch.

Jordo don't get me wrong I think you do have a cool car, i'm posting some pics of it so everyone can see how awsome it is.

DonDula,
we all know you wanted the black liberty and I had to take the silver.. here is an updated pic of your car as of one week ago..
Looks good so far, I saw you downstairs checking out your order for the lamborghini doors... I think $2500 is taking this way to far...

by the time your done it will look like a delorian.

LOL-- get a room you two.

How about this? http://www.wkjeeps.com/photos/SEMA_2005/Grand_Cherokee_002.jpg

what a sharp color!

Like the rims, not as much as the srt8 rims, but they come 2nd!

I have to say, even tho the scoop is slight, i'm not a fan.

Is that hood custom or stock?
If its aftermarket added, then they did a perfect job on it i must say.

Dula, you should get this setup on your liberty. otherwise ill have to beat you to it! :)

thats a pretty hot car, I love the color, pretty cool hood, I wish these kinds of hoods were available.

I like the opening on the Charger hood. I think Jeep would be the only company that could make something that would look just right on it though.

hey,
I am within days of finishing my GC SRT...
just two toned a silver one <I GOT THE COLOR SCHEME FROM THE 300SRT IN HOT RODDING MAG. Ican not wait to share it with everyone. I am posting here because I MADE A NON-FUNCTIONAL RAM AIR HOOD WHICH FOLLOWS THE STOCK HOOD CONTOUR BUT 2-2.5"'s higher at the center two bulges / i will post it today..
PLEASE E-MAIL ME IDKwhy@aol.com .... w/any comments .
YOU WILL PROBABLY NOTICE A LOT OF OTHER SERIOUS MODS--- GIVE ME I FEW DAYS AND I CAN ANSWER ANY MOD QUESTIONS- APPEARANCE OR PERFORMANCE ------- YOU CAN EMAIL QUESTIONS but don't look for response until after holiday.. I will try to answer question on hood, as those are very simple. ALSO >>>>THE HOOD IS FABRICATED ENTIRELY OF ALUMINIUM~ W\ ONLY A SMOOTHING SKIM- I USED THE CURVED SURFACE OF THE FORD LIGHTNING HOOD> IT TOOK TWO HOODS TO GET ENOUGH ALUMINIUM SHEET OF THE CORRECT GAUGE AND THE CONTOUR IS IDENTICAL>>>

I'm not sure about the pics of IDK's hood, but after filling my hood w/those huge scoops from Summit I can no longer see where the hey I'm going. Though I did take .0000001 off my 1/4. j/k :D

these pictures are from IDKwhy. very agressive and the labor looks top notch.... now if only they were functional intakes and it was all carbon fiber :D

I decided I need more pics before I can give my full evaluation ... Agreed labor looks flawless, but I need to see the entire front end/body to get a better feel for the "fit"

thats badass...

More pics please!

Also, where can I get one of those hoods?

Is it feasible to make it functional?

That reminds of how windy it gets at high speeds.

Looks pretty damn good, jobs like that are labor intensive(from experience).Would like to see a pic from straight dead on if you have one. I admire your courage for wacking into the hood of a new ride. YOU THE MAN, MUCHO MOXIE:D p.s. Almost looks like a 1970 OLDS 442 hood.

Need more pics! I have to see that 2 tone paint job and how the hood looks from a few yards away. Also, I see that the badging says "supercharged" - are you running the GSM S/C? How's that working out?

I like the way that hood looks and that color. Anyone here own that beast?

I'm not sure I'll like that color with the stock silver on the lower body.

I never even noticed that.:eek: All blue would be nice though.

Maybe, but that color blue looks too much like painter's tape blue. I'm reserving judgment for when I see better pics. The hood looks like it took someone a ton of work to do and for that fact alone, the guy who made it needs applauded. I'd just like to see it from a distance.

i have another pic of a gsm concept with a really nice hood. how do i post it?
i have it saved under .jpg

send it via email to me (streetjeepsnet@yahoo.com) and i will upload it for you

yo, idk, whats up. my jeep feels like a v6 now, thanks.

I LOVE the paint scheme. Not crazy about the hood for my own taste, but it's very nicely done! I also LOVE the side exhaust, but I need to see how they compensated for it's absence in the rear. Also, with the work into that paint job, I'd have shaved the chrome door moldings completely.

That picture is photoshopped its not a real SRT8......

Obviously its a rendering, however it is going to be how the vehicle looks. I'm not the kind of guy who cares if it's a 'real' SRT or not (which I rememember hearing that this was an SRT to begin with, but I could be wrong. I didn't think GSM made blowers for non-SRT Jeeps).

Now that's a hood I would put on my Jeep!!! Not too crazy about the paint jog, though.

i actually really like the hood, and i also wish those headlights were available.

You have great taste, I love what you did with this jeep, If mine was silver or even black I would paint like this John

Found this site selling this induction hood for the srt 8..

but it wont let me post until I have 4...

...ok its...http://www.carhoods.com/

What does everyone think? I love it! Cant wait!!!

Not sure from that pic and I wish they had a pic of the other. You are the guinea pig my man. I'm excited for ya!!! This is definitely a mod I am dying to do. I wish the factory designed one for us similar to the Charger. I love the hood on our Charger. It really sets it off.

That blue hood is disgusting. I do like that small cowl, though.

thanks for posting that link live4, I didn't know there was anything on the market yet.

but damn, looks like they belong on a Firebird or something!

the other version with a single scoop - which looks like it's from the same mold but without the split down the middle - to give you an idea will look similar to this hood which is the WJ version:

So lemme get this straight..... even the the pic shown is CLEARLY not functional, the actual hood is functional?

I assume you have to cut it out. Thats what pliers and a blow torch are for.

Who'll be the first to photoshop those onto a Silver GC?

I also LOVE the side exhaust, but I need to see how they compensated for it's absence in the rear.
This could be the solution for the trailer hitch location "problem".

Not sure Ge2. But I'm guessing if its fiberglass it is possible to cut out those doors. I'd have to find out what my buddy at the body shop would do. Get back to you on that.

Im definetly the guinea pig:D . I have a good friend who is willing to do the paint for free. All I need to do is order that hood and get it worked on. I'll post some pics as they develop.

It's great that the WK is finally getting the aftermarket support that it deserves I am just puzzled as why the use the styling of the Camaro SS and WS-6 to make a scoop for a Grand Cherokee. I am sure it's easy to swap over something that is already made, but I was hoping for something new.

But, if there is interest in this hood I can contact the dealer and use my site as incentive to get a group buy or atleast a discount. Let me know if this is any interest to any of you gents or ladies :).

I like the single-scoop hood. Somebody please figure out how to make this functional.

Because a lot of the aftermarket is lazy and likes to make minimal changes to existing parts so they can sell them for other vehicles. I have seen these F-body hoods on dodge trucks (1500 & 2500), Neons, Civics, etc...

Check this site out: http://carhoods.com/
I just noticed this has already been posted.

The first design is clearly a late-model Pontiac W6 and the second is late-model Camaro which borrowed from the 71 Cuda AAR-style (as did the popular SRT design).

I'm somewhat of a purist...seeing a Pontiac or a Plymouth scoop on a Jeep is, well, painful. But as Houston pointed out, the manufacturers simply drop the same dozen or so scoops onto every make and model under the sun. Nothing more amusing than looking at a Toyota Scion TC with a W6 scoop on it.

FYI...Carhoods is a USBody site. They sell under multiple names. Same supplier. I won't comment on their company or products. But I will say read their warranty very carefully.
