I want a mod that will add some performance, but also add to the appearance of the car. So from stock, what would be the better mod and how much would I be looking at for either? I'd obviously still need to get an intake so that will add to the cost of getting the hood, plus the cost of painting, etc. What's everyone think?

Re: GT-R or MPD?
New MPD hood is $695 + shipping - http://www.mpd-inc.net/PontiacG6.htm
CAB is variable, here are some options - http://crabintakes.com/price.html
I don't know what the going rate is for the GT-R for forum members but my guess is less than the above combo.Planned mods:
HSRK, motor mounts, tinted tail lights, ECM/TCM/whatever tune, hood struts, HIDs, white and blue gauge cluster and CD/menu screen LED swap, GTP rear valance, GXP front bumper, GT-R exhaust
Finished/in-progress:
2/8/09 - removed intake resonator | 3/21/09 - installed Injen clone stage 4 CAI
3/23/09 - 30% tint w/eyebrow
12/2014 - 2008 stereo install (for aux in)

Re: GT-R or MPD?
Remember, you need to factor in the cost of shipping the hood AND having it painted, which will probably put it in the $800 to 1000 range.
The going rate for GT-R for forum members is $599 + shipping. To KCMO, that was $85.Member: Blue Man Group---Mods: Chrome upper/lower recessed grills, CRAB Intakes CAB, Solar Gard 37/23 tint, VMS ECM tune, GT-R exhaust.

Re: GT-R or MPD?
Tough one, I have both and i couldnt live without them. My personal opinion would be to buy the GT-R first for 599.99 plus shipping and then buy the MPD hood later when there is a groub buy or when you get the funds to buy it and a CAB.
