firehawk hood, which bumper is best

i've got an 00 formula and i love the way it looks with my firehawk hood. but i also just bought a 99 formula that the guy was going to do a TA conversion so he has the sideskirts, rear bumper, and front bumper support. i just went and bought a TA front bumper with a 4x4 piece missing for $50 to get the car on the road. i just cant decide what to do about the hood.

i've always thought the hawk/raptor hood flowed better with the firebird/formula bumper. i used to love the ws6 look, but then i strayed away from it. now i'm starting to think i should do TA bumper with the hawk hood.

here are some pics for comparison

and here is my car

here is a silver hawk

also does anyone know if its possible to add TA sideskirts to a formula. how do they mount?

There's a V6 Firebird for sale at a lot around here that has the TA sideskirts and rear bumper on it, so I would imagine there is a way to mount them to your Formula.

I may be in the minority here, but I kind of like that hood with the Formula bumper.

you will have to drill holes for the side skirts in the rocker panel for them to be attached correctly. and I like the firebird front better

The hawk hood looks WAY better with the firebird front bumper.

I like it both ways, hell I would even like the firebird nose with that hood and the t.a. Sideskirts and rear bumper.

P.s. There is no such thing as a ws6 bumper since they made formula ws6's and trans am ws6's. The same goes with 98-02 firehawks
