I think the bulge looks better than the "slits". especially now after I got one. I'm the only Z in my area with a bulge in his pants .
Just don't do it if you're trying to poser-out.
It was one of the things that almost kept me from upgrading from an '05 to an '07, but the engine won me over. And now since I have the '07 I actually love the hump. I saw a Z come up behind me with the old hood and it looks like it is missing something. I don't know what changed my mind but now I prefer it. But I would not get it for an aftermarket hood. For the money you could get something more unique and you would kind of look like a poser. no offense.
I had trouble deciding between the 06 and 07, but since the 07 hood was attached to the newer car, it won out by default Now I see it and think it looks a lot better.

I really want the 07 hood for my 06. I just love how it looks and how it is designed off of the old 280Z
I have 07. Engine won me over. I don't like the hood. Even now, I just can't get use to it. From a distance, side view, bump/hump sticks out like a sore thumb. I'm going aftermarket as soon as they are available. I will sell you mine if you want.
If you can get a good deal on one then i say do it. I wouldnt dish out 500+ for a stock hood though. If your gonna spend that much money i would get a carbon fiber hood or something. See if you can get a trade + some cash for one.
