Default GSF or RCF hood for gs350

Has anyone ever bought one for their GS350? I wanted to see where they purchased and if there are any aftermarket places to go. I would really like a more aggressive hood.

Thanks, everyone

OH BOY I HATE TO SAY IT but I have been wanting to do something like that forever. lol. I like the RCF hood. I don't know why, I'm a sucker for 'race' type hoods. I was planning on cutting the existing hood and adding aftermarket louvers and still may go that route. I just have a lot on my plate right now to take that project on. But I'm not going to do it for the looks only, I will route that opening to the intake to make it semi-operational. Won't do much but at least some air will get through.

Some people apparently did it on their 3rd gen IS which did not look good because they went the cheap bond-o route. Here is the thread with pictures.

Yeah, looks horrible because it was an amature attempt.

True... but for me, hood scoop on a luxury car? Noooo thanks. Go get yourself a Charger or Mustang. You're right though, it was an amateur attempt and could probably be done more tastefully.
