I have to agree, I would ditch the hood and get something that flows with the body more. It just looks out of place. You mentioned that you couldnt find an ultra Z in your price range? You obviously have spent some money on the car and I know that stuff is not cheap. I think you should spend the money and get a better hood.
The intercooler looks much better black. I would also look into some different wheels, at least something that is wider in the rear. Also looks like your headlights are dulling. Might want to polish those up.
Other than that it looks fine. But do whatever you want, its your car. Just dont get mad if you dont like what others opinions are of the car.
Have you run it at the track?

I thought painting something like that would reduce the effectiveness of it. I like it clean like that.
Edit: Ooops didn't look at the date on the original post. Lol what's done is done.

+1 for new hood and wheels. And I would look into some stainless inserts for the tailpanel I may be the only one but I don't care for the red inserts in a berger panel. As for everything else I like it better with the intercooler black, it is your call on weather or not you want to add a grille to that thing I think it looks good either way. And cleaning up the tail lights really brought your rear end to life.

I read all the comments...if this was my car I would:
1. Change the hood. There are a few cowl hoods that would do the same job and look much more menacing, like a sunoco/harwood. Someone else said it best, a WS6 hood on a camaro is like a chick with a *****.
2. Get a set of stock tail lights. The tint spray looks dull and honestly it looks a little shabby since none of the lettering/lines were sanded down first.
3. Sell the wheels and get something else...even if it's a set of ZR-1s or TT2s.
4. Paint the intercooler black, and figure out a way to add some kind of grille, even if its a black mesh one.
These things IMO would make the car look a lot cleaner, instead of random pieces that don't fit together so well.

Well.... cool car... now I will believe the story of the kid who run a "WS6 Camero"....... Did you hear that story on the ricer forums? Someone linked it back here to LS1Tech, it was funny, I didn't believe it was real 'till I saw that hood on camaros.... then it hit me and made sense.......
