The extremely wide and strange center scoop aside, I think the mini SS scoops on each side is ugly as hell. My vote is a negative.

If you just really want something different I could sell you my old scoop for a cheap price (I paid $200 shipped from DG Motorsports and another $75 getting it prepped and sprayed satin black):

See I don't like the hood myself, I just seen it and I was wondering what everyone else thought of it. And as for a SS hood, IMO I hate seeing Z28's with SS stuff on them, Or the same with a GT, I hate when people put Cobra Stuff on them, Its A Z, be proud of it, stop trying to make it look like an SS!! Not trying to be an ***, Thats just my .02. You know what I mean?

As For a sunco hood, I have not seen one, does anyone have any pics of one??

I hear ya lane. The ss hood on a z28 is ok due to obviously the z28 hood is nothing to look at...lol. as long as you leave z28 badges on it. If you want a real nice hood, sounds like the sunoco would be a good choice for you.

xtinctz28 a few post up has that hood. Search sunoco hood and youll find a bunch of pics. its a realy nice piece and i heard it fits good.
