Really need help deciding on a Cowl Hood I am debating on which cowl hood I want for my '00 Z28. I have pretty much narrowed it down to either the Harwood 3", VFN Sunoco w/ line, or VFN Sunoco w/ out line. Which one do you think would look best. The car is being painted silver w/ silver flake and has 17" chrome Z06 wheels, Stull polished billet grill, black tail panel inserts, '69 Z-28 badge swap (sides, one in grill, and one on back right bumper instead of tail panel). Which hood do you think will look best on my car and go well with my mods?

I was just worried that the line on the bumper cover would be lost once it reaches the hood. I wish they made one w/ the same size line as the bumper cover.

I prefer the one w/o the line just because I think the line on the bumper itself is so subtle that its not something that should be amplified (Hell look at the SS hood. It doesnt have a bodyline with it, and that line doesnt look out of place @ all).
Any of the hoods will look great. Id probably go with the Harwood if you dont plan on any type of stripes (either SS stripes, or hockey stripes) and the Sunoco if you do.

thanks for all your help guys. even though it weighs a ton, I have decided on the Harwood because I plan on keeping the car w/ that "clean" look. like "I'm classy but I could still beat your ***". thanks for posting pics. I'll upload some once the car is all done w/ the custom paintjob too.

the car should be done by the end of next week and I'll upload a ton of pics. The harwood hood came in and I got a really good deal on it from summit. It arrived later than they estimated so they refunded me the $69 shipping fee.
