Lol it WAS going to be before I lost my job. Now I'm just going to make it loose weight and shoot n2o in it. I was working good last year but in a blink of an eye it was over.

That cowl looks way too big. At least for street use.

the onlything that sucks with camaros is that the window is on too much of an angle. in the side pic if u were kinda laid back it seams like it would be hard to see.

I have a cowl, and not a big problem seeing. I have a tiny little blind spot to my right front, but that is it. I have not been bothered for it before. I also have IL plates, so they might not bother...

4" cowls are no joke, depending on the style they can severely limit/impair your field of vision.

Damn Ivan, that a lot pf phuckin d'zues fasteners, lol i have a bitch of a time trying to get 8 to line up properly.

Get this hood if you get the ls1 front end. It would look badass with a black car.
