Somebody measure the temperature of your engine bay before and after the installation of one of these AEV hoods.
Hypothesis: People buy these hoods for the Hummer-esque bulge that's supposed to look menacing or something. The heat reduction aspect is just their excuse.
Question: Can you see the heat pouring out of the vents on a cold day? One website claims that it releases enough hot air that you could heat your lunch over it.

Here's mine....Just picked it up from the paint shop so I will install when I get back in the country.
The front edge and buldge are real powder coating. The white around the edges is b/c they buffed it and I have to clean the excess out.
My RUBICON stickers have been cut and will be black with sand paper texture.
Also while I am in Europe...Anyone else interested in the foam piece in this picture??? I am picking up about 6 of them, they are for the diesel engine and I could not buy them at my dealer in CO.....They should force your JK to breath ONLY through the AEV hood vent. I am paying about $25 each for them.
