not color resolution. color accuracy and panel type. it will matter if it's not color accurate far as seeing blue goes on a tn vs va/ips or amoled screen...much less a non color accurate photo taken off a cell phone posted to some website or ebay
I've been in the body shop business my whole life. When a color whether is white black gray blue green yellow red etc etc is not a match it will show up regardless of the object your seeing it through. The same goes for people that think white is white and black is black. Some don't even realize white has red, yellow and or black or blues in it. The car I pictured above is not a blended paint job. They painted the hood off the car and did not blend it into the fenders or bumper. The only way to avoid the variants is to blend it into the adjacent panels. Take for example ford color code YZ white. Do you know how any variations their are for this color code? Let's say a mustang was painted at the flat rock plant in YZ and another in Cleveland Ohio also in YZ same color different variance. They will not be a perfect match. Look at the bumper cover of your own car, the bumper cover is noticeably different then the hood because they do not paint the bumpers on the car when they paint the body. No computer camera or machine can offer a perfect color match. Only the human eye in different lighting can get it close with the correct know how and experience of color paint mixing. Even then it needs blended. Say your car got T boned, the door is replaced but the front fender and 1/4 are Not damaged. If you panel paint the door it'll stick out like a sore thumb. Unless you blend the closest color match into the fender and 1/4 panel part way it'll be noticed.

I have the Trufiber Ram Air hood and Hillbank Motorsports did a custom job on the Ram Air tube so it would fit over my Whipple and then cut a hole in the top of the air box cover with a rubber lip around it so its snug once the hood is shut. It is now a true Ram Air system. I'll take some photos later today and post them tonight. I've been running it for the past two weeks and no negative issues.
That looks very restrictive Especially with a superchargerWith my Trufiber Ram Air Hood Hillbank did a custom job so that its a true Ram Air system. First mock up to see if it would work and to make sure it didn't mess with the Whipple tune. So far so good. Looking at a few modifications to clean it up some. Seeing if we can move the rubber piece currently on the air box onto the hood section where it dumps the air out, then put the new and soon to be available CF Airbox cover on with the hole cut out and some form of mesh ontop. Think it would clean it up some :shrug:

Air Box Section that sits up against hood section where the Ram Air hood channels the air:
In order for it to fit over the Whipple they did have to custom mold the air tube but it still allows air through which is better than no air. The cold air coming in will help just not sure if its a little or a lot. Since the parts were all there figured it was worth while testing it.
