I like it, gives an extra mean look to an already badass car.
BTW looks good as it sits, nice work.

On the WS6 hood....no <img src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" border="0" alt="[barf]" /> . The front scoops are too high for the cowl to go up the windsheild like that. You need a rising from the very bottom to the top. Maybe if it was the Firehawk hood and had a cowl like that.....that would look cool.

I like it, it looks something between a pro stock race car and factory, sweet!

Your car looks awsome the way it is! That is badass!

I like it.
I would want it a little bit shorter, but it's a very aggressive look.
Somebody should produce it. It would sell.

I would look awesome on a car with Weld Drag lights fats/skinnies. Gives the car a mean attitude.

Give me your TTII's and go get some Drag Lites. <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0">

Is this the pic? Errr... IMHO That hood looks a little to "boxey" and doesn't really flow well with the rest of the lines on the car... but cool idea.
