any pics out there of an l88 hood scoop on a 3rd gen?

does anybody have any pictures of a thirdgen w/ an l88 hood hood scoop? i did a search, but all the posts are so outdated that none of the pics are still working.

i don't think it would look that good, i think it wouldn't flow w/ the body lines, but i really want to see what it'd look like nonetheless. soo, anybody got any pics of this, or want to undertake a photoshopping?

for those curious, or for those who want to try a photoshop, here's a pic of what the scoop looks like. i couldn't find any pics of camaros from the same angles as these pics, but maybe somebody has some on their computer

(mods, i thought about putting this in the photoshop board, but i'm first looking for a real photo of what the hood scoop looks like on a thirdgen, and only a photoshop if no real pics turn up, so i posted it here)

hood scoop from 2 different angles:

reply from vfn:

"Hi. Thanks for stopping by.
Sorry but at the current time we do not have a picture available for the 82-92 L88 hood, but I do have a picture of the earlier 70-81 model....the scoop design is the same but on the different style camaro hood.
You can view this picture by following this link: http://www.vfnfiberglass.com/7081caml88.jpg
Thanks.
Jean"

so no pics of it on a 3rd gen, and the link doesn't work.....damn, so nobody has a pic of this or wants to try a photoshop?

yeah i know. in the email i said i was wanting to buy the l88 hood for my 87 camaro, but i needed to see how it looked first, because i didn't know if it would look good or look out of place.

there has to be a hood somewhere in the shop, i woulda thought they would have snapped a pic or two of it for me since i sounded interested, but oh well. i'm gonna go post on the photoshop board and see if anybody comes up w/ anything good. i'll post it here if i get anything
