There is a guy with a LT1 style Camaro with one of them carbon lookin hoods on his black car. I don't like it. Unlike the berger mod the hood would/will look way out of place.

Look up DRSITES on here. He has one on his car. Actually has had on for a year or so. He had the Manta taped off and hood painted same color as car and left CF showing at a Manta. Looks great.

I'm usually not big at all on CF, but I think on an all blacked out Camaro that'd look nice. Especially with some nice hood pins in it.

the ONLY way it will look cool is of the hood is painted body color, and the scoop (manta) is left in carbon fiber....that'd be cool looking

See if you can Imagine this car below, with that hood, some hood pins in the CF. I think it'd look kinda cool.
