Don't know about the fitment with your hood, but I got my underhood mirrors from Spinner Premium Designs. They are the etched versions with the bird etched from the backside on (2) of them. I painted them from the backside in red to match my other accents. Only thing that shows thru on side you see is a mirror with a perfect red bird in the middle. I also have a custom battery cover made by him in same fashion.
The fitment was perfect on my WS6 hood - couldn't be happier with their quality. Sorry about the last (2) pics - it looks as if the mirrors are white - I had to lay a towel over all the chrome/paint in the engine bay so that it would not reflect in the mirrors and blank out the red bird logos...

jay,
on top of your chromed caps, where did you get the lettering from? is that a decal?
also, question for the gurus
my engine bay is gloss black and as you can see in jay's picture, his is flat black. all i have seen in person are flat black and everyone asks me how it happened. does anyone else have a gloss finish in there engine bay?
i have owned my since it was 9 miles old so no, "the previous owner did not paint it"

Still in the process of getting all this new crap installed and I'm working under the car right now so I can git er' down on the ground and finish the engine. Then I'll take new engine pics! 
The lettering on top of the caps is custom. I had the guy that does my decals and show signs duplicate the text and any design that was on top of the factory caps EXACTLY, even down to the Mobil 1 Oil Cap, in a vinyl that looks like etching. I then applied the decals to the tops of all the caps so the text/design now looks frosted and as if laser etched.
Details, details, details...
I personally have never seen the engine bay of any F-body painted in a gloss paint - always the satin finish

the whole engine bay is gloss black to match the car. i don't know, i've never seen one like it either, that's why i asked. the performance shop here in NC couldn't believe it either.
i'll try to take a pic later this week and send it over. as long as you don't compare it to yours.
