They must have been in a hurry to get that ad out cuz they used a primered steel A990 hood and scoop for the ad. A990 Low profile bolt on scoop, hood lettering and lighter grey primer than the gel coat on the pieces.
The glass AFX hood has a taller integrated scoop and no lettering.
I have one of those plaza F'glass AFX hoods uncut. Very substantial piece.
