Default What Hood is this please?

Hey all, I'm curious what hood this is? I have looked a whole lot and can't seem to find it anywhere.

I'd be interested to see other angles to see if I like it.

This is my friends old car. The hood fitment was terrible. The hood pins are there to pull the front corners down. I will see if I can finds some more pictures.

That's right, green halos and underhood lights that would make the vents glow green. Pretty cool, but not my style.

I could actually seeing that looking pretty good on a satin black car, or even just regular paint. The hood has an aggressive look with the scoop and vents, but the stripes just don't really work, nor does the white paint job, it needs a dark color for a more sinister look.. Satin black, whistler mod lowered with better offset on the wheels, that'd make for a more interesting look.

IF it were a 'front breather' with a DEEP air dam, that hood would actually function and help cooling AND create some front down force at speed.

Didn't LG have/offer a hood similar to this (without the SS style scoop) on his World Challenge LS1 4th gens??
