what about this hood?

Its a hard decision, i like this hood and it looks like it will hook up to my factory ram air. what do you guys think about pitting a "trans am" type hood on my camaro?

i like it myself and i think they only look good with a nice set of ground effects. Wouldnt look back with stripes down the tops of them??

thoughts????

I've never seen a hood like that on a Camaro, but I like it. I was looking for something similar, but all I could find was Suncoast Creations Z-Style hood which I also like.

I've seen the hood before. I thought it looked good on the ebay pictures, but I saw someones website who had the hood (the trans am type) and it didn't look right.

Well, since you asked I really really like that hood. The only other hood I like is the SS style.

I say stick with the SS the quality and fit of it is a million times better than one of these aftermarket hoods. If anything i suggest that ZL1 style hood that is awesome.

At times i like ti an sometime i don't. it looks like it might be a little too tall for the shape of the far. it depends on the angle you look at it i guess. it would be need if they made the hood with the vents on the scoops to let the heat out. I've seen it on one TA before. that would be cool.

I bought the commando wing a while back and there are very few people who like it. I never hear the end of that. i don't have it on my car anymore, its sitting in my room collecting dust. I would like to sell it but no1 wants one.

do aftermarket hood really fit like crap? i dont understand how people have to modify them to fit?? i don't want to mess around with that crap.

I think the Ram Air II hood is ugly. The scoops just don't follow the lines of a camaro. They just kind of come out of nowhere.
