Smooth wiper cowl

Anyone know of someone who makes a smooth or low profile wiper cowl for a 4th gen Camaro? I hate the way mine looks, and i been thinkin bout puttin an LS1 type on, but I dont really like them either. I know when i had my S10, I bought a fiberglass smooth cowl for it, but I haven't seen one for a Camaro. Anyone ever make one?

I hate the look too. It would be tough to do this since the hood stops so far forward of the wipers. I wish GM would have designed the hood/quarter panel area farther back to hide the wipers and cowl area.

I found this old thread of someone smoothing out the cowl pieces and painting it the same body color. I think going back with black would have looked better though. I used the new Krylon paint for plastic a few years ago and has held up really well. It's not white and dull looking anymore and never needs dressing. Probably would look better smoothed though.
