Please send me a PM and tell me where you got the hood. I'm curious if they are going to make one for or have one for an LT1 car.

I'm not a fan of the camaro ground effects or THAT hood. IMO I would re-do that whole car. It needs a lot of appearance upgrades! Did he own a civic before this car?

I swear, that looks like a scoot(IIRC) hood that I see on FD RX7s all the time. Not really a fan, but it isn't my car...

yea that hood doesnt belong anywhere near a camaro... you cant mix asian and domestic, whats next a huge spoiler on top of your factory spoiler. Dont mean to sound harsh but like stated before that hood belongs on a rx7 or supra something like that.
