Re: hoods hoods hoods! post bad *** pics of your hoods
I hate those turbo daytona hoods they are so damn ugly. The one with the plexiglass inserts made me throw up in my mouth a little. Seriously that engine is nothing special to look at. It's not like it has a kick *** turbo system or an exotic fuel injection system to show off.
Re: hoods hoods hoods! post bad *** pics of your hoods
It might be the tire size. I bought new springs from PST but i bought them stock height because I was afraid to lower it because Irocs are low as it is and was afraid of the speed humps and bumps because of scratches. It has gotten scratched anyway. I'm thinking about lowering it though. I don't think it looked that high with the original 16" gold Iroc wheels becasue the tires were bigger but I don't recall.

Strongly disagree...and don't bash someones car. Say something about a different hood or something instead of just bashing about his engine. Post pics of your engine...I highly doubt you have the kind of money to throw a turbo at it. And there is nothing wrong with his hood. It's just an opinion but I think that his engine (being dressed up) With blue ?K&N? air cleaner and top, which are both blue, along with his whole engine really accent his car. If you notice he has a nice metallic blue paint that matches with the engine.

Your post is confusing, first u quote someone who likes the hood and you say you agree, than you quote someone who says the hood makes him want to throw up everytime he sees it and you say you agree with that.. make up your mind. For the record I think it's the tackiest looking hood ever made. The one with the glass inserts is much better looking and would look great if it was just a regular iroc hood IMHO still it's very well done and makes an otherwise ugly hood look nice. I would tend to agree with the above poster that what's showing through under it is rather boring looking but I think I remember from a previous post that he has something planned to go under it.

I'll go ahead and throw my collection over the years. Started with the RAII when it was first offered by US Body Source and was freaking $$$$. I can't find my pics of right before the wreck, it had billet grills in the hood and new lenses.
Stock Iroc Hood
SS Hood

That is tight. How did you do that. That got me drooling to get a new camaro so I can do that.

Re: hoods hoods hoods! post bad *** pics of your hoods
ugly car, ugly pic but you get the picture
fiberglass hood installed by previous owner
car only has about 500 miles on it since i resurrected it from the dead.
Been dead since 2001. Irocs suck on dirt roads by the way.
It'll look better soon
Oh, that stripe?? There was a BRA on the car while it sat. When I removed it; the paint came with it.
BTW,,,how do you guys "see" outta them huge cowl hoods, I can barely see outta mine and its small,,,notice the dents on the front fender.
Re: hoods hoods hoods! post bad *** pics of your hoods
in the thread above this one i have pics of my hugger orange 91 camaro with white strips. and a 4 inch cowl hood. im a huge fan of the cowl hood and stripes that follow the body line!
Re: hoods hoods hoods! post bad *** pics of your hoods
Here are some updated pics of my freshly painted hood. As you may recall, I had posted pictures several months back (first page of this post)when the hood was primered, and the louver holes were freshly cut.
Here she is now...new paint and finished louvers! I hope to have the entire car buffed soon.

Now that should be the way GM should of made this hood. I have the one with the blisters thinking about doing this mod myself.
Re: hoods hoods hoods! post bad *** pics of your hoods
STOCK, just the way it belongs. I was considering going with a carbon fiber cowl hood, the Sunoco, or SS hood, but it is just not worth it to me. Staying stock gives me anywhere from $300-$700 more to put into my drivetrain, and paint job.
I've been wanting to get rid of the Ultra Blue since I bought my IROC, black will look nice.
