Default Stingray Hood on Silver Camaro?

Honestly, no one likes this hood but I think it looks pretty cool on silver camaros...VFNfiberglass has a small pic of one but I was wondering if anyone has this hood on their silver car? If so, please post a pic of your car.
Thanks!

That style hood on 93-97 TA's looks killer.

I don't know, it just doesn't seem to flow with the lines of the body. I'm all about the factory performance look than aftermarket. Even a Sunoco looks more factory than that. Maybe if the lines of the cowl were a bit smoother and the design was made a bit round'er than the almost razor sharp edges it has now, it may work for me; kinda like a wide SS hood with the center thingy

Fugly! That hood only belongs on the 63-67 Sting Rays (two words, not one) The 69-76's were Stingrays (one word) and they never had that "stinger" hood. Actually, the only car to have that hood stock was the 67 big block corvettes. You can't mix and match that hood IMO. Keep it on the make and model and generation car it was made for. .02

I've seen it on an ls1 camaro that was black and the hood had some red accents and I thought it looked good.

I think it looks pretty good. You definitely have to paint the inside of the scoop black though.

A friend of mine bought a 96 z that had that hood on it. The car was black and the hillbilly that owned the car before him painted the scoop silver. They also painted the entire spolier silver! It looked horrible.
