The car's hood is another type of door. It also consists of an inner
and an outer panel. The inner panel provides strength. The outer
panel is just a metal cover, or "skin". The underside of the hood is
often covered with a sound-absorbing material. Some high performance
cars have openings in the hood to allow the engine to "breathe"
easier. "Hood scoops" are used to channel outside air directly to the
air filter, which gives improved performance and efficiency.
