Default which hood???

I know everyone has heard this a million times!? But... Im in a bind and not sure which hood i should purchase!? I would also like to know which has the best fit?


Choices are: 2inch cowl glasstech, possibly the 4inch
2inch cowl sunoco
ss hood


Sorry to sound like a broken record, i just need some opinions!! thanks!

post a pic of your car....maybe that will help generate some responses. You can rule out the 4" unless you have some serious HP and either need the room or want to look like you are compensating for something.

I would vote for either the Sunoco or the new VFN Ultra Z....do something classy, not overkill.

I just had the same decision. It's your car do what you want. Even though I like the sunoco a lot i decided to go with the vfn 4". why don't you post up a picture of your car how it is now so we can give you some input.

If your car is black, go with the new Ultra-Z from VFN. If it is any other dark color go with the Sunoco. If it is any other shade, go with the ss hood.

I didnt even know VFN made the ultra-z now.. But the sunoco is awesome but alot of people are getting them. Ultra-z doesnt look right without GFX IMO and the SS is everywhere as well.. Sorry im no help! lol

Set up a pole man! so much easier for people to vote that way

I would go with the 2 inch cowl, or ss hood. or if you are making big power then get the 4 inch cowl

Definitely don't see any sunocos here in St. Louis yet... SS hoods are still all over the place. But yes, it would help if you posted pictures....

dont got any pics yet.... but...

its 2000 z-28 nbm, with tt2's, 15% tint... if that helps!



thanks for opinions guys! I had my heart set on the sunoco since i think it goes with the body lines better on the car compared to the glasstech. I also thought the same bout ss hood... a bunch of people do have them!
