N/A/ Hood on a TII

I'm replacing my hood with a carbon fiber one, With a FMIC would a N/A hood look stupid on a TII? Or is it best to keep a TII hood on a TII even with a FMIC?

What about getting a reverse scoop hood? It'd clear out hot air a lot better..

I'll tell you what looks stupid, a Turbo II with no intercooler under the scoop because it is out front. Even worse than that is a TII hood on an NA RX7.

What's the big issue with TII hoods anyway? And what's so stupid looking about a TII with a fmic? I don't get why people are so pissy about the NA's with TII hood's, it's not like you can tell without looking under the hood or racing it anyway!
