TRD hood looks badass but simply not worth the money. Veilside is the better hood to go with and I believe it weighs less. Correct me if I'm wrong though. My car is not going to be a daily driver anymore so cuts in the hood are fine. But you never know when a rain storm is going to hit and thats when spending the extra money saves your ass!
I've seen people cut a stock hood with a plasma gun to look like the trd hood. Works good if you know what you're doing and it will save you 1700 dollars.
