I had an ASCD 2" cowl on my car when I bought it and sold it right after I got the car home.

Thanks man! Yours should look pretty good when you get that hood painted. Get rid of that pin stripe btw.

There's a guy with a 3rd gen formula with a LSx hood. Haven't gotten too close of a look yet, but it sits right next to my buddies crib. It doesn't look horrible either. I'll see if I can snap a pic next time I'm there.

My 93 came with an 02 front end and SS hood. I sold it and I'm pitting the entire LT1 front end and SS hood on it.

I'm going with left over green for my paint job! My friend is getting out of the body business, I now have a gallon mixture of any dark green metallic paint he had laying around. Looks really dark in the can, so the car might end up a darker shade of green than the factory. I won't mind.

Screw a SS hood, my all time favorite is the Harwood 2.5" cowl hood which I have on my car. It looks beatiful. The SS spoiler sets it off too.. you get the full, mean look on the front end and the lip on the rear, it's so sweet...

Here's some google pics...
