Default Formula with WS6 hood?

My car: 1999 white firebird formula with corvette rims. (Pic to the left)

Have you guys ever seen a firebird formula with a WS6 hood? I know my formula has a different style bumper and i wonder how it would look...I want my car to be a head turner.

What hoods look good on my car? Also, where can i pick up a WS6 hood for a good deal? Or, any hood for that matter...

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, he does have all the trans am stuff...

Although, i will admit i think i like the ws6 hood on the formula better...I think the bumper on the formula makes the front end look cleaner with the hood...

Hmm, anyone know how much or where i can get one?

I wonder if a black ws6 hood on a white formula would look good...Maybe i should try to photoshop this...Anyone have skills doing that?

Here is a pic of my car so far...

I think the hood would definitely add to it. I can't decide on anything though...

Also, i did search for trans am kit/package and couldn't find anything on ebay...I'm going to try google now.

I don't know what you are talking about as far as black bumper thats on the WS6. They are all the same, base Formulas have the same bumper as a WS6 Formula. T/A's are different, but the base and WS6's don't change the bumpers.

lol, i didn't know their was a formula ws6. Well, you learn something new everyday...It looks good and different.

Forget the body kit crap, I'm just going to make mine look clean as possible.

Although, i still want a hood...I can't decide what kind to get...It seems like they raise the price of the WS6 hood because everyone wants one...

That is just a stock Trans Am bumper with the bottom area painted black also known as the CETA mod.
