No point in getting an ugly hood because it's not as abundant

I was the 12th person to have the sunoco in the state of Texas nearly 2 years ago. I have only seen 2 others in person since:

I've yet to see another BGM car with a Sunoco and I haven't seen one in person yet other than mine. And you can't deny that its a damn good looking hood.

Here are some choices for you between the sonoco and the traditional 2 3/4 inch cowl hood ...take your pick ... keep in mind that you can click on VFN over on the right hand side and look at a bunch photos of cars with the different hoods that they offer.

Definitely Sunoco, a friend and I are installing mine on Saturday, I CAN'T WAIT!!! Like I have said before, it seems like a lot of people have the Sunoco hood because they are the people that post most often on this forum but they make up a very small percentage of F-body camaro's you see on the road. I have yet to see one in person.
