+1 for being different.

But for my taste I think its Fugly. It just doesn't follow the car very well. You can tell it's for a EuroJapCrap rice pattie, not a Camaro. It would go from Fugly to just ugly if it was the color of the car.

I like it. I've seen that hood before, but only saw some small pictures on the SOM car. I'm glad someone finally got it. Are all the scoops and vents functional? Where did you buy it from? I have a place bookmarked but that place looks a little shady.

I love everything but the ground kit and the exhaust tips.
Take off the ground kit & sell it & buy some quad exhaust tips and it will be awesome.

I love the hood. but definitly when you paint it leave some black around the 2 rear vents to highlight them.

It is a hood you would see on a civic. But i think it would look better if it was painted.

Love the hood man

I think hoods like this get a bad rap becuase:
1) Not everyone can afford them, so they are quick to say how crappy they are because of the next:
2) "Ricers" have over done and cheaply over done this kind of thing, but many people fail to remember there are many "domestic heads" that do alot of the same things the "ricers" do.
3) Many companies try to solve problem 1 by producing the item cheaper. But fitting and quality are sacrificed.

I think they look awesome and when done right you cant get any better of a hood. Stronger and lighter than fiber glass I mean common! A buddy of mine has a carbon fiber business geared towards REAL autoenthisiasts with high budgets (porche race chassis and alot of the NSX crowd). I weight about 300lbs and was able to do a chin up on a Diffuser that was made for his NSX. I ask you...do you think Fiberglass could do that? The agressive look is somehting I really do like, and thsi hood is a popular design for the last gen RX-7 crowd, and on an LS1 I think it is a perfect fit.

Actually this hood looks good on a Viper which is probably where they got the idea from, but who knows

Nah, it's based on a hood designed by the VIS Racing about a decade ago for Mazda RX-7s. Looks alright on an RX-7.

Not for nothing but that hood looks like *** in any decade. And that thing looks retarded, regardless of how fast it is. Definately not my taste yuck, I think I like it better on the camaro.
