dont ruin the Camaro with that hood, go buy a ws6......lol, but if you really want to get made fun of and have people telling you how the lame the hood is all the time then I think they are all over ebaymotors. Just type "Camaro hood" and I think a bunch of stuff comes up.....and I mentioned the stuff above as a fair warning.....dont be offended

Sorry to say it man, but this ^^ is the reaction you WILL get from about 95% of F-body enthusiasts/lovers.....just giving you warning. There are SOOO many hoods out there that can set your car apart from others, and they look much better than the one you want.....

to be honest, i think the warbird (ram air) hood looks REALLY bad on camaros that dont have gfx of some sort. the lines just dont flow right.

i have it on my car, with the RS kit and it looks a lot better imo.


i dont have any better pictures unfortunately.

I think the best looking hoods on Camaros are the Sunoco style hoods like on the Dick Harrell editions.

Take a look at the Z Style Hood we have on Group Purchase special right now. It's a good looking hood and suits the lines of the Camaro much better. There is a thread about the pricing etc in the Sponsor Section or check our web site.
