Default Hood question

I'm considering buying a hood for my car along with some other things and have narrowed it down to 2 styles. I'm trying to determine if either is more functional with cooling or aero? Not that it would be a big difference, just trying to find something to make me lean one way. Right now I'm leaning towards the Amuse style one (2nd link). Thanks for any help or opinions.

I think I agree with you. The one in the second link looks better to me.
I'm not sure if you will really get any extra air from either one.
You might vent some hot air out of the hood though.

The cover that's built into the hood? Is yours a Seibon as well? How is the fit and finish? Direct bolt on replacement?
