vfn wide body pin on hood for 93-97 camaro

I ordered mine last week, but a buddy of mine let me take his because he hasnt even got his car running yet and im ready for paint...i just fitted it to the car and thought you guys might want to see it...i love the look, anyways here is a crappy camara phone pic...but its better then nothing because i really wanted to see it installed before i bought it and i couldnt find any pics in the 93-97 body style posted, so hopefully this helps the people considering purchasing one of these...i cant believe how sick thsi thing looks...im really happy with the way it turned out

i drive it daily in the summer and its no worse than a 4" cowl...it gets bigger in the center but your line of sight isnt affected...thats why i like this hood so much, its aggressive but doesnt prevent you from driving the car

Looks weird, I don't like it. I wonder if it looks like this from the front?

Can't deside if I like it or not. Why did they call it a "wide body" hood?
Also looks in the picture like the hood covers the wipers, would make it rather hard to use them.

you can't use that hood with wipers, it goes all the way to the windshield.
race cars don't have wipers anyway, street cars don't have lift off hoods

rain-x works great for in case you get caught...but i don't drive my car in the rain though...what's the point? and like i said before i drive it almost everyday in the summer...so its still a street car in my book...i can go for a 100 mile hike and back without any issues...i have heat, a horn, and a stereo...and in michigan we dont have inspections either so it sucks to be you if you cant get past inspections with this hood... it can be cut to use with wipers if you so choose, but i like this look better
