that vfn hood looks good, but it is not quite the same as the one on the sunoco camaro, the sides of the cowl slant down at like a 45 degree angle, but on the vfn hood they go straight down, just like any other cowl hood. I think the slant of the sides of the cowl on the dick harrell and sunoco camaro are what makes it stand out and look more sleek compared to most cowl hoods.

The new VFN hood is just like the sunoco camaro hood. This one is without the center line.

GMMG wants to keep them. They aren't available. I don't think another company has made them yet. I think the front bumber cover looks awesome too. The GMMG cars look out of this world. Why didn't Chevy make them all like that?!

Mcnord, want a real Dick Harrell hood for that car?

I've got that ebay wide body kit on my racecar. But I could not see over the hood as low as I sit in the car! It had to go.

Not to sound stupid but whats the difference? Pin on? center body line?

Got anymore pics of your car? Looks good from the pics you posted.

It does have the center body line. The real hoods are carbon fiber skins glued to the factory steel bottoms, making them fit just as good as OEM and accept all the latches hinges etc. I chose to pin mine in the front since I no longer have a core support, much less a hood latch....so those pin holes would need to be filled.

Otherwise...very little difference...I just want to sell mine
