The cardomain page



I'm not really a big fan of it, but what's the deal with it. Who was it made by or is it some custom job?

I've never seen that type of hood before. It almost does look custom though with those SS scoops.

Now that you mention it, they do look like hacked up SS scoops molded onto the hood.

That is obvious that they are SS scoops. It's amazing how it is just like a stock camaro hood with the vents inverted. The hood line and the vents now stick up instead of being recessed into the hood.

It's almost like taking a stock hood and turning it inside out. Haha

Hmm... interesting. They would have been better off look-wise if they figured out a way to make the stock fake-vents not fake. I can only assume that these SS scoops are nonfunctional as well???

Yes, but I've seen in other places on this board that the stock vents are in a very bad place...ie: over the PCM. So you wouldn't really want to open those holes up to allow water to soak your computer. I can't imagine how you might rig up an air box to benefit from it either. I guess it'd solely be to let fresh air in if you were to do that. Still risky with the PCM deal though.

There is still room for at least 2 more scoops on that hood. He needs to finish the job.

You wanna see a cockeyed front end? This ugly Camaro on ebay has front end wackiness I can't even start to explain. It looks completely crooked (not to mention ugly)!
