looks good! I have to agree that the center hood louvers are just to much, and don't flow with the trans am at all.

no, that would be a superhawk hood, like mine.

The WSQ nostrils are a different almost teardrop shape.

Glad to be able to assist you Sam. This hood is similar to the superhawk but has the taller ram air humps and criper shaping versus the rounded superhawk style. It is one of the best hoods I've painted shapewise other than the factory WS6 hood which I still love! Can't wait to see it back together!

What kind of labor goes into changing a hood like that?

I didn't think it would take long for someone to mod that hood like that.

Once you get everything aligned and nice take lots of pix. Looks killer and probably one of a kind...for now at least.

Dang that is a sweet hood. I've never seen that one either. Yeah, looks like a cross between a Firehawk/Superhawk and a stock WS6. Got the height/lines of the WS6 but the open nostrils and curved edges of the Firehawk. It looks bad ***, bud!
