I like different! Pretty sure thats what you were going for right? I bought a 3" cowl hood for the T/A. Not painted yet but when it is, I'll throw it on. Ever seen many Firebirds w/ cowl hoods? Not too many out there. Like I said before, I like different...

Not the hood that I would have went with, but it is better than stock. IMO the ram air hood style only looks good on a TA.
