Cool BEST BONNET - AEV, TMD, TMD SCOOP or stuff it and stay STOCK
I have a JK CRD and am looking at my next mod which may be a new bonnet. In the end though I might stay with stock. I don't think these FOUR have been compared...forgive me if they have.

This thread is not primarily about practicality but rather about design and aesthetics.

With the maturing JK Jeeper opinions and knowledge base I'm interested in thoughts on which of these four LOOKS BEST on a JK (select 1):

1. AEV - Full new hood
2. TMD - Full new hood
3. TMD Scoop - Cheapest new look and can fit JK with modification
4. STOCK - Satans Sauna but looks great

I know there will be strong opinions on the effectiveness of each bonnet ranging from zero and bloody useless to quite good and I don't care it just looks hot (no pun intended).

"It's a bit like opinions on art really
I don't much about art but I know what I like".... as long as it's BLACK.

Vote and share your thoughts.

Yes ... twas me ....

But the question in the poll was which bonnet looks best.

TMD is next IMHO .... as the AEV one looks like the seven dwarves have been in the engine bay swinging picks and shovels.

I like all three but the AEV is looking a bit old after 2 years. I like the side vents on the last one and the scoop looks like it could be in the next Mad Max movie
