You call VFN and they take the order. Not sure what your friend is telling you.

I dont know if you guys know this or not, but ill just post it up for the benefit of everyone:
"The height on the standard Sunoco is about 3"...
This scoop is 22" wide.

The Wide is a little taller...sitting at 4 1/2" at center, then dipping down to 3" at the back...for better visability.
The width on this scoop is 28" Wide." - I got this information straight from VFN when i asked the size difference.

The only thing i can think of is there might be a problem when you open the hood. But idk ive never tried it or seen a post about it

I'm not usually one for aftermarket hoods on these cars, but that one is pretty classy.

My Sunoco fits well, fenders need some adjustment. I think they look better without the centerline. I like the wide, but only when the car has a drag setup (wheels, stance, etc) I like the regular on a street car.
