Default Q: Anyone have the Trufiber A61 hood? (SMS 25A replica)

Does anyone have this hood on their Saleen?

I currently have the Extreme hood in fiberglass but messed it up during a aerocatch hood latch install, (measure 10x cut one but still was off some how?) anyways expensive mistake and now I'm debating between getting the trufiber a61 or get the extreme hood again from HCM.

Help me decide! I love the hood vents on the extreme hood, but I also love the scoop on the A61 but not a fan of the vents.

I run the A52 hood on my race car, very happy with it.
I bought the Saleen Extreme F/G hood as well but used the Tru Fiber

Yea I had it. Fitment was great, finish was the best I've seen and yes it clears the supercharger.

The only downsides are that it's a little heavy around 40lbs and the vents makes your engine bay dirty easier.
