Which Hood?
I want to get a new hood but I really am not sure of what one yet. So I thought it would be fun to see what other people thought... Here are some pictures of my car to base opinions on...FYI the last 2 pictures are older

my buddy just got the 98+ style hood on his black Z its getting painted now. I think its a nice low, sleek look which would go well with your car's drop kit and stock spoiler

I've allways thought that the Cowl hoods work SOOO well w/ the 'wedge' lines of the LT1!!

I LOVE IT!
I've ALWAYS liked this car!!

How about this... Can anyone post pictures of black cars with their hood choice? This way people can see what they look like

This car belongs to one of the guys on here. I really liked his hood and saved the pic so that I had an idea on what I wanted mine to look like. Pretty sweet if you ask me. If I could remember his name, I'd post it.

You must live close to me then. I live 2.5 hours south of KC. I've seen the RamAir hood on a Camaro, it doesnt look as bad as I thought it would. I always thought they were more for the Firebirds, but its not so bad for a Camaro, especailly when you add it with ground effects.

Those wider cowls like 96 Z 28 mentioned I thought have always looked best on the camaros. I had one on my old red v6. Only thing is you can't seem a damn thing. You go from not being able to see the front end to not being able to see any road within ten yards of the nose
