ram air hood question????

alright guys my hood flew back and hit my windshield wile i was driving and busted my front windshield and the hood looks like it cant be repareable its a slp ultra z hood, my question is would the walbird hood fit into my car which has a functional ram air box that was being used under the ultra z hood, oh i should explain that walbird hood a little better it sells in ebay and looks exactly like the ws6 firebird hood but for a 93-97 camaro, would that hood work under the box. thanks

Just my opinion, but I don't like the WS6 style hood on a Camaro, it just wasn't meant for it, IMO.

Prolly the same way that it happened to my buddy with a Suncoast creations hood. Making a highspeed pass, and the top of the hood seperated from the bottom of the hood.

well my whole hood went back about when i was at 6o mph the only reason that i could think of is that the latch is no good and also the guys who put my hood on forgot to put the safety hook that goes on the hood.

i had the guy look at my car and said he could still fix the hood so thats something good. i'm just happy i didnt crash since the hood was on the windshield and couldnt see and still was able to stop correctly at night time thats a miracle! i still dont know if i am going to pay or if he is, i'm trying to make him pay for everything since i have no insurance or the worst part i have no job at this time. any body know how much front winshields cost or is there a good place through internet to buy one, thanks guys for the reply's.
