Construction & Design

This hood is crafted from hand-laid fiberglass and resin, ensuring a lightweight yet robust structure that withstands the rigors of daily driving and spirited performance use. The gel coat finish applied to both the exterior and interior surfaces provides a smooth base for paint, reducing prep time and helping achieve a professional-quality finish. The design incorporates functional ram air tunnels that channel fresh air directly into the intake system, improving engine efficiency and performance potential.

Amerihood’s attention to detail is evident in the use of factory hinge and latch points, which means the hood fits precisely and installs with minimal hassle. The aluminum wire mesh inserts add a layer of protection against debris while maintaining optimal airflow through the scoops.

Installation & Fitment

The Amerihood CLG Functional Ram Air Hood is designed for a direct fit on 2005–2008 Dodge Magnum models, utilizing the vehicle’s original hinges and latch for a secure and factory-like installation. While installation is straightforward, it is recommended to dry fit the hood prior to any paint preparation or finishing work to ensure proper alignment and fitment.

Note that this hood requires hand-finishing for paint prep and fitment, as it is not a simple bolt-on replacement. Proper care during installation will ensure a flawless appearance and optimal function of the ram air system.
