Agreed, and you don't have to pay the ridiculous shipping prices on the hood. I found a local dealer that had them in stock at their warehouse. I have had mine 2 days and absolutely love it!

Mind expanding on this? Am curious as I've been waffling back and forth on the PSC louver vs AEV hood solution to address the hot under hood temps. Thanks.

The PSC louver works great.

Basically some one stole my hood so I got the insurance to pay for an AEV hood instead of stock. Was thinking about trading my AEV hood for a stock white hood plus cash and switching to the PSC hood louver. Still undecided since not many people I have seen have it and it really looks good.

Those look great, guys! I have a '13 Moab; no vents. It makes for a nice bird bath when it rains...
