Default Which hood?

Im narrowing it down between 2 hoods,

The suncoast ss hood (i beleive its taller and a little bit fatter than the factory ss)

And the glasstek 4" cowl

I love the look of both hoods, car is a z and pewter. with the cowl i would prolly get a black decal that runs along side of it and with the ss if prolly just geth the scoop painted black

thanks for opinions

I'm going to vote for Sunoco cowl on this one too. Only because I dont like Suncoast's ram air design. Looks like it's slapped on to me.

I'd get the suncoast SS, I just love the way it looks. Looks a lot meaner than the Cowl

Suncoast SS. I have an ASCD hood with a little bit of a taller cowl and I love it. I've been in other WS6s and a WS9 and it's not as tall as my hood. If the Suncoast is taller, grab that one.
