If you do please post some pics. That is my favorite hood in all the world.

I think that hood looks sweet on the formulas, but I wonder what it would look like on the Trans Am of those years.

Also, I've had a screamin' chicken decal on my wall for over 6 years now and since I'm getting a '91 Trans Am, I might as well slap in on there once it gets a paint job.

So again, please post pics if you got 'em.

These are pics of my brothers 91 Firebird.
That's a Power Bulge hood from an 84 T/A from the junkyard, that I put on and painted for him, right before the Trans Am Nats, last year.
I think the color match was pretty good for this color.

Ha!
We just did that to my girlfriend's '91 Firebird with the Sport Appearance Package!
Same thing!
Junk Yard from a '91 Formula, already red, and matches her red Firebird!
We kept the 5.0 liter silver hood scoop decals on it, as she has the 305 TBI engine!
No T-tops though!
Same rims for now, but soon to go back to black GTA style mesh wheels (16 inch Diamond Spokes), as soon as we get her a set of Goodyear GS-Cs!
The Trans Am/Formula rear spoiler will be on in about two weeks!
Nice car 1tinindian!
Now, to get pictures!!

George

the previous owner put this hood onto my bird. I like mainly because it allows my open element to breath cooler air. Now i just have to wait for summer so i can get it painted.

I love the look of that hood on the 91/2 aeropackage cars.

Hey George, notice anyone in Leon's 3rd pic?

I also like the last pic, 4 cars all lined up w/ the same hood! (the 84 in the background, hehe)

Hey Dan!
You're right!
I see your dad! Ha!
Oh ya, and you! HeHe!
I didn't even notice that before, and I usually look at photos pretty close! Doh!
Ya, we think the off set budge hood looks great on the '91-'92 Birds with the Sport Appearance Package!
Next week I'm planning on picking up Lisa's hood from Alex! Then we'll have to get it painted to match!

Later,

George
