Looks good BOBS99SS. I think the 3" SS hood looks awesome on Camaros that have slicks & skinnies for some reason.. Ill probably end up getting the Sunoco hood. Do you guys like it with or without the center line?

Honest i like the center line so much better i feel it kinda looks more at home with it.i also agree that the 3 inch SS looks killer with the drag set up, im changing my wheel set up to a 17,15 black weld rts. But a straight drag set up fits that Hood so much better imo

you get this hood and you will be the only one RockN it in the Bay unlike the other hoods.

The reason I paid $1040.00 shipped to my door back in 2004 for the hood I have. Crazy but I never ran into someone with the same hood.

All of the hoods look good, but the Sunoco looks great, the last one looks like it could be a stocker if you don't know the cars.

I have one of those hoods. And that is the color of my old car. Makes me want another Camaro even more so I can finally put it together the way I wanted to originally.
