Out of those 2 I'd say the SS. Personally I'm sick of the SS hood and wouldn't choice either. But that's me.

That first hood looks ricey for sure. With a 4th gen Camaro the best options in my opinion are the SS Hood, the L88 Cowl hood, or a a standard 4" Cowl induction hood.

i really dont want a glass hood, i do like the ws6 hood but im sure it would get flamed pretty bad, and it only comes in glass.....anyone have any experience with how these carbon creations hoods fit????? good quality??? not really many solid options for these cars unfortunately.

I've heard some good things about VIS carbon fiber hoods, just not from the f-body world since they aren't too popular here.

None of the the above. VFN Sunoco hood for me. It looks as good on the LT1 year cars as the LS1 cars.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but what's everyone's opinion on the Suncoast Ultra Z hood for lt1 Camaros? (the ram air firebird style) Im going to possibly buy a used one for 175 tomorrow.
