I'd say Sunoco, but I could very well be biased.

I should get mine on the car someday

I have a hugger orange car too and i just bought a wide sunoco from vfn. It'll take 3 or 4 weeks but i might try to put a picture up when i get it to help you out. I've never seen a HO car in person or on the internet with a sunoco hood.

I really like the look of the Sunoco hood...

However, nothing fits like the OEM hood.

Any glass hood always needs tweaks, with an OEM hood you throw it on and enjoy!

I generally love the Sunocco, but I'm torn with your paint color, etc..

form those 2 id say go with the Sunoco.

i was almost in the same situation a couple years ago. but i already had the SS and still i wanted something different. The Sunoco was my 1st option but when i was browsing at the VFN website i found the SS and for me it was the best way to go... it has the SS looks but more aggressive and less common.

my car:


and i found this pic at the vfn website...
