Default Raised WS6 hood

I was just watching a video on Fquick, and saw a Trans am that had what appeared to be a WS6 style ram air hood, but the cowl was a lot bigger. Looked kinda cool. Just curious if anyone had any information on these hoods. Maybe something to look at down the line when I start adding appearance things to my car.

Probably an Outlaw hood or WS9 hood. Didn't bother to check the vid though.

I like the regular ws-6 hoods better. Superhawk outlaw hood is the best looking hood for a firebird IMO

Well everyones entitled to their opinion, but the hood looks nothing less than bad *** in person. Also once it finally gets painted it will look even better.
