Y2K WS6

Just got the car and I'm weighing options. I already have a Pewter 2000 Trans am and it IS a WS6. I'll be tossing most of the WS6 components onto this car. ( swaybars and springs) because they are laying around.

what do you all think?

Trans am's just look weak without that WS6 hood. There's just something about the way it looks like a snarling beast with its nostrils flared that makes the car.

I was never a fan of the ws6 hood. I'm in the same boat as you, and might go with the ws9 outlaw from VFN.

sorry, I don't like the raptor or firehawk hoods, so they just aren't for me.

My NBM was a Sleek Beek and I liked it but always wanted the WS.6 hood and I was able to get a used (unpainted, but worn), WS.9 and it was worth every penny!

I have the WS9 and I love it. The Firehawk heat extractors are enough subtle differences that sets it apart from a stock WS6 hood but looks amazing. I get tons of complements on my hood.

I got the WS9 hood in paint right now...once I get it on i can put up pics if ya want... I like WS9 or WS6 but thats just me

I would've already put a WS9, WS6, or superhawk hood on my car. Think that's the best look for our cars. But I just can't bring myself to part with my paint job, and i sure as hell don't wanna pay to have it done again.

I voted "it doesn't matter". I think it would look better with one, but I've never cared to get one so, I don't really have a say-so.

Wow, your car looks just like mine! I've been debating this too. I love the way the WS6 hood looks, but I also like the "sleeper" effect of having the regular hood. People don't expect such a plain looking car to be fast.

IMO the WS6 hood and the WS9 hood should be the same because they ARE the same just one has heat extractors and the other doesn't. The only other options out there that are good other then the WS6 (which IMO yea looks great but every LS1 Firebird/Formula/TA has one, is either the Raptor, Firehawk, Superhawk, or Mecham.

Personally I'd go Mecham...you gotta pay to play. Be different and step out of the WS6 box...

I have a sleek beak... it doen't bother me at all, under the hood is what counts!

Im more worried about go-fast mods at the moment!

If I had one sitting around i would throw it on though....

When I got my car I had every intention on changing the hood so I got my WS9 and never looked back.

I too do not care for the WS6 hood, but then I don't care for hardly any of the aftermarket hoods either. It is the partition that separates the hood nostrils from the bumper opening that I do not like. It makes the hood look like an afterthought, rather than one that is supposed to be on the car.

OP, you already stated that you do not like the Firehawk hood, but that is the only one that I do like. The lack of a partition makes the hood flow better with the lines of that area. The smoother transition from the hood to the bumper has a "meant-to-be-there" look that I prefer.

I already know my opinion is very much in the minority, so with all of that said, you should walk into your garage, take a look at the front of your car, and the first thought that comes to mind, go with it.
