Is this hood custom or aftermarket? Found this in the "Mega Gallery". I like how it follows the factory hood lines better than the other cowl hoods I've seen. Anyone know if its a custom or aftermarket hood? If its aftermarket, do they make a bolt-on version?

I remember the harwoods for the LT1 camaros, but didn't think they made the same/similar style for the LS1 cars. Guess I was wrong and you are right

Seems like its not really a popular hood. Looks good on some cars and not-so-good on others so I'm not sold yet... Thanks for the info though!

It is NOT a Harwood hood. That is Chris', Whistler's, old car. It is one of three (maybe four, I forget), that he hand made out of carbon fiber.
Harwood did magically come out with a VERY similar hood after Chris' car got national attention at a few shows...

hes right!!
Did "Whistler" also make the hood for VSGLS1? Or is that the same car? With the hood not painted and the ccw's missing? Or did Whistler sell the car to VSGLS1 lol?
