Car looks sick either way.. but that style cowl hood never looks right on 4th gens imo... It has sharp lines unlike the cars that are more rounded and smooth lines.. car still looks good tho

I liked the old hood better. Cowl is too boxy and doesn't flow well. Looks good but not great

SS hood, as much as I like cowl induction style hoods I very much dislike the way that one changes it's angle about a 1/4 the way back from the front, If it was a smooth transition getting steadily larger then I would like it better, plus it needs to be more rounded on the edges to flow with the natural 4th gen curves.
