The SS hood is becoming a little to common, and the big block is just weird looking

i say big block hood with a 5 inch hawks IROC spoiler. it would give it a nice agressive look. maybe some 18 torq thrusts (which is a shock coming from me cuz those are way overplayed) would look NICE.

I think the SS hood would be the better choice of the three unless your gonna put a different spoiler on with the BB as someone suggested. I just think the jongbloed makes the car look like its pregnant. Personally, I am going with Harwood Outlaw 4" cowl.

the big block hood looks the most aggressive (which is the style i like the most) but that jongbloed looks good too in that simple yet efficient kind of way

How is visibility with these hoods? I really like the Big Block hood, but my car is (or will be, rather) a daily driver, and I'd rather get a small cowl that I dont like as much, than have a totalled car because I couldnt avoid someone in my huge blindspot that I call a hood lol.

anything under 3" should be fine to see over. I tend to forget mine is even there while driving.

Alot of you guys are saying "the SS hood is to common". Over these past few years, I have noticed alot of people getting the SS hood on this site. But where I live....there is not 1 person that has it. It just depends where you live and what kind of cars are around. There are tons and tons and tons of cars that have the cowl induction hoods. Yes, they look great...but I see them on big trucks, little trucks, new cars, muscle cars....just to many to list.
The list of hoods that have been posted is a good list...and a pretty hard to list to choose from...it depends what stlye your going for. If you wanted a Camaro and wanted that "muscle" look...I'd definently go for the cowl induction or the jongbloed hood. The SS hood is a more updated sleek look. I love the 3rd gen body style...and I still want to keep the body style....but to update it a little to todays time period. As for my car....the SS hood, the 2 inch drop, the size of the wheels...and everything between set it off
