I'll help you: DON'T GET IT!! lol The stock SS hood looks so much better. But if you decide that you inexplicably want to unload the much better-looking one cheap then please let me know, thanks.

Not a fan of that hood, it always looked like some cheap knock off that ever quite looked right for the car. IMO of course.

You won't find that hood, it was a one off done for that car by GM. It almost looks like the LT/LS SS hood but it's no where close. That car was built in the mid/late 90s and has a aluminum BB chevy in it

I always loved that hood, it is a one off though. That car started life as a 1993 Camaro with an awesome twin ram jet motor, it was in the "Toy Chest" (I think that is what it was called) of GMPD.

It later got a 98+ face lift. The closest you can find to that hood is over at DG Motorsports.

That's just called a "big block" hood. They were most popular on the early 4gens and can be found for the late ones as well, just not that damn big. Im sure they are out there but I havent seen any like the one OP posted
