Keep trying to contact Keystone Restyling - talk to Alan or Phil if possible. I know they're hard to get ahold of, it took forever to secure their sponsorship at this year's DRTC meet because of missed calls.

I tried again today and sure enough I actually talked to Phil. They have the install kit with directions. It was only $15. I just dropped the hood off today to get painted along with the new grille and mirrors.

roughly how much is it to get a hood painted

About $200-400 depending on the quality of the paint/shop/prep/etc.

BTW if possible do not let a body shop convince you to blend the fenders or nose - this means they assume the color won't be a spot-on match and they try to overspray the new color onto other body panels so your eyes are fooled into thinking it matches. They did this to my silver truck the first time around and I could spot the different shades from a mile away, it took 3 more re-sprays before everything finally looked right.

I would much rather have the hood be a little bit off and force them to re-spray for color correction on just the hood than have 4-5 body panels not quite match 100%.

what one gives more air to the engine??

A shaker hood gives the most direct air flow to the engine, the GTS/SRT-10 hoods are probably close seconds.

I think they may have been referring to a replacement wiper cowl above though, those look good with any model of hood.
