I dislike the big block hood. I like the paint though.

I don't like the BB hood on Camaro's either, but you pulled it off very nicely. Great looking car!

Looks pretty good. But what I would do is paint that small section of the big block hood where the "ram air" hole should be black. There's too much orange there, and it's hard to tell where the lines are.

Re: what u guys think

it looks pretty good. I don't like the BB hood but it looks pretty good on your car. I would paint the front of the scoop where an opening would be black or get some sort of decal. It looks funny with the front of the scoop orange.

Re: what u guys think

I agree with the black opening, and you also need it shiney, if thats paint then you need to clearcoat it.

I would agree. I like the hockey stripes but since the scoop is painted i would get rid of them, they just don't flow right. Otherwise looks good
