I say go either SS or the BigBlock hood and cut out the front for functionality. Those were my top two choices back when I had the '88 anyway. Good luck findin one.

P.S. Can't go wrong with ram-air

I think those are just nasty ugly!

I've only seen them on low-class roached out 3rd Gens. Not good, IMO.

don't like those turbo hoods cuz they change sizes and have sidevents... the sidevents make it look unfinished like my scoop and the change in size is just plain weird... I mean sure it opens up some space under the hood but why not just keep it wide to the back and front like mine... makes for a huge opening...
THen again from the poll 2 people don't seem to like my hoodscoop much... oh well... I like it..

That's odd. The only camaro's I've seen them on looked awesome. The lines look really good in person.

To each their own I guess.

I have to agree about the Iroc Turbo Hood; nasty, stupid, ugly, make me mad. I have only seen them on clapped out Irocs, and I hate them with a passion, just my opinion though.

Actually I've seen pics of yours a few times before and I don't mind the SS hood so much. Really it's just the 4th gen T/A ramair hood that I think looks like a$$ on 3rd gens.

The Iroc turbo hood I saw on a canary yellow '89 once and I just about puked. I liked them until I saw one in person.

Chihuahua...you've got a good idea there and if you finish it off right I think it'll look real good.
