C'mon, I could have sworn I saw that hood on a 91 firebird. Does anybody know what I'm talking about?

Thanks but I've seen the hood at usbody.com, and I've seen the pics of it on the older cars around here and i've seen it on Sonar's camaro. About two or three months ago, they had a post with a link to somebody's website. If I'm not mistaken it was a 91 firebird with stock ground effects and that hood and the pics were big cause they took forever to load. I just need some help getting in the right direction.

Yeah, it is but that hood looks a bit different when it's on a 91-92 Bird, since the front end is different. I used to have those pix on my hard drive and I wiped 'em once I got my hood, bummer.

Ok, I'm starting to doubt the intelligence of some of the people on this board. I'll try to make myself as clear as possible. I've seen scauffiel's hood and ben87gta's hood and sonar's as well. I think the hood looks great on all the cars. I'm being really specific here. I know for a fact that I've seen the hood on a 91 or 92 Firebird with the stock gfx. I would really like to see the picture again but none of you seem to remember it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?????

Karps TA, nice try but that ain't it. Is that a 91 or 92 firebird with stock gfx? I don't want a TA or a formula. And if that is stock, then I've got a couple of things confused. I'm talking about a car that looks like Eric's. Same everything except fot he Ram Air II hood. http://members.aol.com/J007Golden/MVC-126S.JPG

Formula's came without the ground effects. The v6 birds w/ aero package (mine), and the TransAm, and GTA's came WITH the ground effects. The picture above is of a formula.

I have a regular 91 firebird with the LO3 and it has the aero package. It's driving me crazy that I can't find the picture I'm talking about.

This guy is on 3rdgen.org somewhere.He has a 92 Formula with the RA II hood on it.

http://www.geocities.com/seandcasey/car.html

It's warped on the bottom because the body shop baked the hood when they shouldn't have.

BTW,I'm new here,but not to the car scene

Chaotic Firehawk can be found wondering NEThirdgen.org and 3rdgen.org

Thanks CF for the pic, but that's still not what I'm looking for. I want a firebird, not a formula or a T/A. Just a plain ole' firebird with the aero package I believe. (like 91Bird305's, eric's car). In fact, his car is exactly what I'm looking for only with the Ram Air II hood. I know I've seen a pic around somewhere but it seems to have been lost by everyone that had it.

Is that what's going on? For the amount of coin USBody wants for one of those, I'd hope they didn't fit like. Still looks like it has a ton of waves in it.

The owner had it fitting perfect before he got it painted.The body shopped removed some of the hood bushings[little rubber things to align the proper hieght of the hood]which was mistake number 1,and then baked the fiberglass hood after the paint,which was mistake number 2.
