    How far from the hood leading edge is the opening? I have the center vent (uninstalled) but was thinking it might be nice to upgrade later. It looks like the cowl opening is much further back than the plain vent option.

    • There will be 5 inches from the leading edge of the hood to the opening that would be cut out of the hood.

    What color does it come in - unfinished, primed black? Order your own color? Thaanks

    • From my understanding, it will arrive in an unpainted black finish. At this time, we do not currently offer this cowl in a pre-painted application. We generally recommend having a paint/body shop prime and paint the cowl before installation.

    I'm assuming this hood kit would not allow fitment of a 20" LED hood bracket mounted light bar?

    • Thank you for your question! The hood scoop would interfere with hood mounts for a LED lightbar.

    What is this hood cowl made of and how well does it lay on the hood/

    • The Daystar Hood Cowl (07-17 Wrangler JK) is made from ABS plastic. This hood cowl is a great fit and lays well on the factory JK hood!

      Daystar Hood Cowl

      finish on hood cowl is good. the template is accurate. the fit, well here is where the big problem lies. only after drilling multiple small holes, and making one big hole in my jeeps hood. I find that the front of the cowl does not match the contours of the jeeps hood. the front corners stick up about an 1/8" at each corner. it looks awful!! there is no way to test fit beforehand, as the cowl has the studs molded into it, and cannot be removed to check fit. I now have to try and recontour the front edge without damaging the finish of the vinyl wrap that I have already applied. I'm not happy at all!! I would not recommend this if you like you jeep!!!

      Daystar hood cowl

      The hood cowl lowers the temp under the hood by about 10 degrees. You should plan on doing body work on this hood cowl if you're going to paint it to match. The fit was great.

      Great way to improve your jeep

      This is an easy way to improve the look of your jeep without having to buy another hood. The best part is that unlike most of the replacement hoods out there this will let you keep your side stickers on your hood that say "Rubicon" Installation was easy and Daystar has a video that shows just how easy it is to install; I installed my hood cowl and my side vents at the same time with no problem. The only thing that I had difficulty with was that the vent trim ring was not uniform and had to be grinded down to make it even, but other than that it was a breeze.

    Word On The Trail

    This company has always been the go-to site for good deals, good products, and service. I never have had problem with the products sold, even after several years of use. For example I have had the tire rack on my jeep from 2003 to now, I have brought a new jeep and the first thing I ordered was a new rack from them for my new jeep. Good product, good service, and the best prices. I use this company as a base line to compare other dealers with, and this company always wins out.

    My dad would always take me trail riding in the Pine Barrens as a kid when I lived in South Jersey, so I’ve always been into four wheel drive trucks and Jeeps. When the time came for me to get a vehicle, I picked up an old Cherokee. I still have that old Jeep strictly for offroading, but after a few...
