I was just wondering. I just picked up my new/ old thirgen car. Before it I had a 88 sport coupe camaro. Now I have a 1991 Firebird, with GTA rims and a formula hood with the calf buldge. I dont know if formula's came with those black rims, and I thought trans ams had the hood with the grids in the front.
Anyway it looks sweet and I was cruisin around for the first decent day last weekend with the T-Tops off and the stereo up, and so many chicks kept starrin, and lookin at my car. I even got there #'s. It was so sweet. I love my car now. I didn't know they would like a 91 GTA/formula/trans am or whatever it is is such a chik mag. I guess it must be the brand new black paint and ghost flames. U think I should get the 02 ram air hood? I think it will cost to much to paint black, and match the flames. I'm thinkin around $1000 but it looks so sweet right.

 

omg man, more pics!! interior and everything. thats the sweetest thirdgen ive seen in a while. that hood is perfect on there. i wouldnt change it, use the 1000 somewhere else. whats under the hood?

 

no thats not mine i want that hood. Anyway its a cruddy 305 throttle body. My car is just as nice though.

 

oooh

misunderstood you lol

 

damn, the RA 2 hood looks so sweet with a 91-92 nose...especally in black. with those black rims, t-tops and ghost flames, i dont see why chicks wouldnt like it. i noticed if you "modernise" a 3rd gen that girls tend to like them more. BTW you could get a decent price for that formula hood, theyre scarce nowadays and a lot of people are looking for them.

 

tell me about it man, my car picks up all the chicks

the wrong kind thou, the hot bitches who just wanna use u for the money and fun... which is not always a bad thing thou

 

Thats not your car bud, but it is a nice car.

Sad that some people have to lie to make friends.

 

why dont you read tough guy. he said it wasnt his car, it has the hood he wants.

 

haha...BURN!

 

Man, the pic from the front looks great, but then I saw the wheels... Man those are ugly wheels...

 

PLease, PLEASE, don't start a problem.....

Learn to read!

 

LOL

 

my car came with the gta rims from the factory it was an option for the formula 350, t-tops were part of it also.

at one point i wanted an aftermarket hood but now i am not too sure..

 

That car looks badass with that hood! But the rims definitely gotta go.

I've picked up a few chix with the car, but it's my own damn fault for making them think the car's their personal limo.

Nowadays the only one that gets enjoyment from it is its owner.

 

Hahaha

I'd say put that 1000 into the motor then some more money into the motor, then when it can perform the way it looks with a RA2 hood, then get the hood

 

Slowbird1991, first post, and you've already made a name for yourself. Better luck next time.

 

it's all about attitude and keeping it clean.........the two are a deadly combination.

 

troll

 

They were lookin' at you freezin' your @ss off Nice car though, please get us some good pics

And about the hood....buy the ram air hood and keep your old one. Parts for these cars are getting harder and harder to come by and one day you'll wish you had it.

 

LOL Iroc....I'm in NY...and yeah...I can vouch for the lousy top down winter we're had up here.

Am I the only one out there who really doesn't like the 4th gen hoods on 3rd gen cars? In fact... I don't even think I like them on 4th gens....

I personally think it looks out of place. I think the stock GTA/TA hoods with the fender vents and front nose vents looks more at home.

then again just my opinion

 

I do love the RAII style hoods, BUT they never seem to fit properly on the 91-92 style front bumber covers.

 

i agree, love them on the 98+ ta....everything else i'd have to say a huge no.

however, the earlier style whatever it may be called that isn't so noticeable looks sharp i think.

 

Camaro68Vette63, where in NJ do you live? anyway.. im also not a big fan of 4th gen hoods on thirdgens.. they belong on LS1 TA's.. thats the only cars that look good with them.. but thats me...the only 4th gen hook i like is the SS hood, but i wish they made them a little more smoother like on the newer SS camaros..

 

I dont think that hood looks good on a 91-92 nose at all. The lines are all off.

Too blunt for such a pointy car.

Also, with a black car, I would keep the vent style hood. The nostrils on a RA hood dont show up that much. youre better off getting a cowl.

 

I'm diggin it.

 

ha

 

lol petey wait till this beast gets painted then you will have some compitition witht he chicks

Had this guy read the post he wouldnt have looked like such an @$$. lol. i like the hood on that car. i say pump the money into the motor. u already got the chicks looking now u have get ready to race sound liek a nice car tho:hail:

 

I never liked those front ends until I saw your car with that hood. match made in heaven.

the wheels need to find a new home...my 2 pennies

 

I like the SS hood better than the Ram Air hood but If I had a grand and my car looked good already, I would put the money in in the motor. But remember it's your call. Slowbird1991, try to read the posts better next time. Bummer it had to be your first post. i won't count it against ya

 

chevy kid.. nice car... reminds me of mine....
