I Guess I should of made it an option to keep the hood I have but I never thought about it. Yea I think my hood looks nice but I'm ready for something a little more racy looking. Something to make the car stand out alittle more I guess & loose some weight while I'm at it.

Ok future poll voters A, B, or keep the hood I got.

I've never been a fan of large cowl hoods or those oversized VFN ram air hoods.

I vote C. Your stock hood looks great! One of the best looking hoods made for any car at any time PERIOD. Just my opinion though. I like what you've got!

i voted B but i think you should keep your stocker... i voted B cause i have seen the VFN hood on some other cars and it just doesnt look good, on car A up top it looks mean in that exact picture but i am just not a fan of those... if you had a Z i would say for sure to get the cowl hood... thats just me though
