For the love of God and all that is good....keep the SS scoop as far away from the vette as possible.

VERY few aftermarket hoods look good on the C5's and the SS hood is/would not be one...

Personally, I think the aftermarket hoods designed for vettes look great and the hoods that come equipped on the WS6 and SS should stay on the F-BODY.

Don't let'em get to ya man, it's all in fun, but you have to admit, it is an odd question, right? Although there is a guy that posts here with an aftermarket scoop on his C5, think he has a maggie. Anyway, that particular pic in his sig is pretty cool lookin, but it's not a F-Bod hood.

I have the same style scoop back home that I bought for my 91 camaro, would look like *** on the vette I would never think of it.... EVER!!! That's just my opinion though and that did sound a little ricer ish but you didnt do it so you dont need a honda yet

Gotcha, it kind of sounded in the initial question you were considering putting a camaro hood on a vette. I think that's why you were catching some heat. The hood scoop that I was talking about earlier is the first reply in this thread: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ghlight=maggie

This vette hood looks pretty sic to me. If this is something like what you were talking about, then yea, I like it too. But...honestly, for the C5, it's hard to beat the stock hood, IMHO.

Then you just get a high-rise hood which has a bigger bump in it.

I think this is what you're looking for. It looks like stock, only it has a higher center hump; like what Keliente was referring to.
