Overview:

The AIT Racing Shaker Style Functional Ram Air Hood is a premium aftermarket upgrade designed specifically for the 2006 to 2010 Dodge Charger. This hood combines aggressive styling with functional performance enhancements, making it an excellent choice for enthusiasts looking to improve both the aesthetics and airflow of their Charger. Crafted to deliver a distinctive shaker scoop look, it channels fresh air directly into the engine bay, helping to optimize engine cooling and potentially enhance throttle response.

Ideal for performance-minded drivers and those who want to make a bold visual statement, this hood is a proven choice in competitive motorsports such as D1, Formula Drift, and NOPI Drift, reflecting its quality and functional design.

Key Features:

Designed with both form and function in mind, the AIT Racing Shaker Style Functional Ram Air Hood offers the following key features:

• Authentic shaker style ram air scoop for improved airflow and aggressive appearance
• Fully functional vents to enhance engine bay ventilation and heat dissipation
• Constructed from high-quality fiberglass reinforced resin (FRP) for durability and strength
• Gel-coat finish on both top and bottom surfaces for smooth paint prep and long-lasting protection
• Includes aluminum wire mesh grill where applicable to prevent debris entry while maintaining airflow
• Utilizes factory hinges for straightforward installation and reliable fitment
• Thicker and stiffer than factory steel or aluminum hoods, offering improved rigidity
• Compatible with factory rubber stoppers, though some adjustment or trimming may be necessary

Construction & Design:

This hood is expertly crafted from fiberglass reinforced resin (FRP), a material known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion. The FRP construction results in a hood that is thicker and stiffer than the factory steel or aluminum counterpart, providing enhanced durability and a solid feel. The gel-coat finish applied to both the top and bottom surfaces ensures a smooth, paint-ready surface that simplifies customization to match your vehicle’s color scheme.

The design incorporates fully functional vents and a shaker scoop that not only elevate the Charger’s aggressive stance but also serve a practical purpose by directing cooler outside air into the engine bay. An aluminum wire mesh grill is included to protect the intake area from debris without restricting airflow.

Installation & Fitment:

The AIT Racing Shaker Style Functional Ram Air Hood is designed to fit 2006 through 2010 Dodge Charger models using the factory hinge mounts, allowing for a relatively straightforward installation process. However, due to the increased thickness and rigidity of the FRP material compared to factory hoods, some adjustments may be necessary. This can include trimming or removing rubber stoppers and potentially adjusting fender alignment to ensure proper fitment and panel gaps.

Because factory steel or aluminum hoods can flex slightly to accommodate uneven fender lines, the stiffer FRP hood may require careful alignment during installation. It is recommended to have professional assistance or experience with bodywork for the best results.

What’s Included
