Re: hoods

hey man id go with the SS hood. That one is more bulky and more pricey. i like the SS hood myself but am considering the camaro ram air hood. but to make the ss hood stand out you could do the striping from this hood on it and just change the color to what fits your car. The blue camaro is what i am going for when it comes to my 86 Z28 -Matt

Re: hoods

Go with the SS hood, the Ram Air hood is just to bulky looking IMO.

SS hood = camaro

RAM air 1 hood = Firebird....

Ram air II Hood = ugly and should have never been made for any car other than the 98+ Trans Am.....(and even then the raptor hood looks 10x Better on 98 + birds.)

The hood in his link is called the ram air hood as well and is on a camaro, that's the ram air hood I was talking about. The Ram air II hood is to damn bulky as well though.
