Default VFN 4" COWL VS GLASSTEK 4" COWL *need pics*

Ok I've been looking at TONS of pics (via search) and can't find any of the VFN 4" cowl. I'm trying to decide between the VFN 4" or the Glasstek 4" for my HUGGER Z28. I'm finding lots of pics of the Glasstek, but no VFN. So please ***** out your hood for me!

hey i persoanlyl have the glasstek hood but i havent put it on my car yet. its a real nice piece of work and me and tory are good buddies with eachother. the only thing is the hood has to be trimed all around. they leave the extra fiberglass so that you can have a body shop or yourself(if u have the knowledge) make it a near perfect fit to the car.

I don't like at all the old VFN 4" cowl hood. It's just been redesigned and it looks better now. Go to the 98-02 Camaro section of the VFN catalog, and scroll down the page till you get to the "newly redesigned" hood: http://www.vfnfiberglass.com/site.htm

The VFN Sunoco isn't as tall but is their best looking hood. In my opinion the best looking hood for our Camaros.

Hi Guys.
Mindreaper is right, we have recently re-vamped our mold for the standard cowl hood for the newer Camaro. The new scoop design flows much better with the hood. Here's a pic.

Thanks, I've been to your site, but you have no pics of the new hood on the car.

Even tho VFN is about 30 minutes from my house, I still went with a glasstek because I have seen nothing bad come from them. It fits better than my stock hood did.
