Question i went with a little something different on the ss hood.

I was wondering what the ls1 community thought about it. I wanted something different because i've seen several camaro's near my home town that are all silver and black. I loved the black stripe on the ss hood but 3 of them already have that so i decided to put my own spin on it and got this put on. I liked it so i figured i'd get ya'll opinion. Also yes i know she's a little dirty.

Looks good man. I see a lot of SS's with the paint before the grill of the scoop, and your's looks a lot better to me.

Im not a fan of the other mods but the paint on the hood looks pretty nice.

I have a white car and wanted to do the full tear drop on an ss hood, and get the spoiler black with the raises up to the spoiler painted black. I think itd look pretty good with the black roof.

No I made sure to get this kit because it actually fit around the seames of the car and didnt give it that funny look except for on the rear end which doesnt look bad in the back.

I've been wondering what to do with mine to break up the atomic orange. I think you solved it for me.
