Well a couple of people have asked me about my hood in my avatar so I am now posting pictures. The car is about 90% exterior wise and I am very happy with it. The outlaws are temporary while I drive around for the winter. The pics at the end are with my Shelby Series 1 wheels before the hood was painted... Oh and uh, they are 335's.. For those of you that feel the need to
its ok... The flame suit is on.


Here are the pics..

Since most people dont post them up, here is one of me and the car.


Acting like a cowl the Hood is fully functional directing air from each loover to my intake and it is made by Trufiber. All I have left to do is shave a few things, get my Corsas on and that is pretty much it. Just like everyone else here I put a lot of time into my car and I am more than happy with it.

You say the hood is functional, but is it only functional while going in reverse? .....sorry, had to ask

At least you have your suit ready. It doesn't look as bad as I would have imagined

I only liked the second set of rims. The hood looks like the only thing is good for is to help guide the water from the rain onto your engine. The fog lights i am still 50/50 on. I think you need to put that front badge back on. Just My honest opinion

Overall I don't think it looks bad at all. The offset for the rear wheels (the nice ones) is a little off so they stick out a lil too much for my taste, however, not horrible. I think if you ditched the fogs and did the whistler mod to the head lights it'd look pretty sweet.

About the hood, I'm not sure if I like it, I think I do, the lines don't flow 100%, but not bad at all! Overall, I like it more than I hate it, and just IMO it would look a whole lot better w/what I mentioned. Just my $.02.

not bad, though i would of liked the hood to be functional

Hood is not bad at all, but i don't like the first set of rims.

+1 to you sir, I like your car **** any haters.

I don't think that hood is designed as a cowl.... it seems to be more of an extractor hood, I'd believe that to be functional.

Wow, hood isn't even close to what I had imagined! But I like it! I'm assuming you added vents to the stock (flat) hood???

Oh, and I'd say to fill in the nose badge and smooth out the nose line to finish out your front end Should fill in that CME valence too

The base of the hood uses the SS skeleton for the air to be fed to the intake. It is not a heat extractor like it looks and I did feel more power once it was put on.

Like I said the first set are temporary.. I just so happened to have borrowed those from the '71

I'm speechless.... ( open ended)... It's YOUR car... if you like it, that's all that matters... Kudo's to ya...

I like it overall. I would have to Black out the fogs to keep em in that location. The car looks sick with the 2nd set of wheels.

the second set of rims are defintly better but I dont think you guys are noticing how far they stick out in the rear..hood looks ok it is for sure something you dont see too often on a camaro.

I definitely was not expecting to get more good comments than bad. Thanks for the kudos. The Fog lights are one of my favorite parts of the car. It looks mean as hell going down the road at night. I initially was going to remove the side louvers on the hood but when I realized they were functional I decided to keep them. As far as originality goes, thats what i was going for. I only know of two other Camaro's with Shelby Series 1 wheels and they are both LT1 and I have never seen my hood before. Here is a pic of my Shelby's from the rear.... At first I was worried they would be too wide. I have two drag bags in the rear to keep them from rubbing the rear quarters. Yeah they are wide, but with the Valance and everything else the cars stance is great. Thanks again for the props.

hood painted with the street wheels (335s) would look great. imo it's different and not the norm. kudos for sure!
