Default Calling all Camaros with a 4" cowl

I may be interested in switching over from my SS hood which is currently the only hood I think looks good besides possibly a cowl.

If possible please post at least 1 front and 1 side shot. Also the brand, I am thinking VFN or Glasstek I have not seen any other names being used.

IMO dont go with the "sharp cornered" cowls, they look out of place on 4th gens...go wtih one with rounded/smooth edges.

i'd get one that includes the molded in stock "scoops," otherwise all that flat expanse on the sides looks retarded. And I think sunoco style hoods are ugly as hell.
