I seen this done before a long time ago, it was an all white 4th gen car with the shaker style hood. However, they also did other things to it as well, like the spoiler and some of the decals to make it into a very cool 2nd gen retro. If you got the time and money and think you can pull it off then I say go for it.

I would keep the predator, it looks pretty sweet. Plus with how the lines are on Firebirds, the nose looks too thin without some type of ram-air hood, and with that shaker hood it would probley make the nose look even more akward.

i think getting an actual airbox like the original is better then getting that airbox, and the openings don't look any diff to me.

suncoasts hoods line up like ****.......... as for the ramairhood.com hood they line up good but just like any other hood you have to adjust to fit perfect
