Re: ss hood or cowl hood

An SS hood would match up well to the SS spoiler and emblems you already have, but then again a cowl hood always seems to go well with weld prostar rims. I am leaning towards the SS style hood though to match up with the other stuff you already have.

Re: ss hood or cowl hood

Personally, I love the SS hood, and have never been a big fan of cowls on 4th Gens. But 2000GTP was right when he said a cowl goes good with Welds.

Re: ss hood or cowl hood

I'd say get the SS it looks so much better than a cowl hood. Cowl hoods only look good on 94-98 stangs. Also you might want to edit your post about the SS emblems if not the SS guys are gonna get really pissed.

I too have Weld ProStars. I have a Firebird Formula but they make the hood I have for Camaro's as well. Check out www.cardomain.com/id/1bdbird shows the hood pretty well in most of the pics.

Re: ss hood or cowl hood

I think the SS hood was the right choice.When i first read cowl hood i was thinking the cowl had a "harder" edge to it the whole way up the hood.I'm not sure if that makes sense.I like those cowl hoods alot.i think they look good on alot of cars.

Re: ss hood or cowl hood

Cowls look good on 4th gens i my opinion, just not higher than 2 1/2" on an LS1 car. They look great with stripes on them too.
