i'm not just going to say this because its the responce that everyone gets but... lower it...

I really think that if this car were lowered A LOT the hood would look much better. the hood looks nice and agressive but the stance does not support it.

Nice hood!
true for Z28's/SS's, but some 6 cylinder cars had body color mirrors and sail pannels.
