No longer true, then. That was his initial situation. He left to make parts for Vipers and he said he had quit making the hoods. He periodically sold a few he had on Ebay. You claim he is still making them. Does that mean he will begin to regularly sell them? Maybe via his new website?

ive been in contact with him....ie like 3-4 days ago.we emailed back and forth because a picture of my car went up on ebay in his auctions i didnt know about,which wasnt a big deal,just nice to at least know,lol.He's pretty much the only guy making the hoods and is waiting til business slows down b4 he opens the website cause he has too much on his plate currently.i dont wanna go into all details since it was a private convo but thats the cliffnotes.

not sure about the vfn hoods but do know that the US ex. hoods are functional there are 2 holes below each extractor about 1 -1 1/2 inches across, or you can open them up a little bit more

ggk i know that.
but that code means it was a firebird formula that was turned into a trans am.
or that is what i am gathering the info i have been handed.
my hawk is a formula, not ta, and has a ws9 rpo code

ws9 = Model Conversion Pontiac Firebird Formula

There is no difference. They are the same hoods. U.S. Exotics sold the WS9 Outlaw hood mold to VFN.

yinkes. vfn has the outlaw hood..for 600 bucks, thats a big stretch for me, looks like although WS9 is the popular vote ill be going for the WS6 style.

For right now I only got a formula front bumper until a T/A bumper comes up im stuck with it, so maybe the WS6 would be best for now anyhow
