Sunoco Style Hood Question / Poll
I am getting ready to do a Sunoco style hood for the 93-97 and 98-02 Camaros. Do you like the hood scoop as it is or would you perfer it wider? Rex

Dick Harrel sunoco hood looks the best. I think a little bit wider cowl with no center line. Also a little more rounded transition between the hood and the cowl. Just some small subtle changes though.

I say a little wider and a little lower. Maybe 2" instead of 2.5". I think it would be cool too if you could curve the back down towards the windshield too. OOH OOH, and make one for the lt1!

I like them with the line, without it they look too raw like it should go on a gutted drag racer.

This is A wider version we have been working on,
its funny for years people have been asking us fiberglass companies to produce this hood, and came up with nothing, so we at VFN take on the challenge of producing this thing, and once other companies can see that their is actually an interest in this hood, now they are suddenly ready and willing to produce it too, we like being different and we like offering products that no one else does with exception of cowl hoods, its nice to stand out there and have an identity all your own,
