Me personally I like the SS hood the best but a nice cowl hood isnt bad either. I dont like the ram air hoods on the Camaros at all I think they belong on the birds.

I agree with Meridius, the Ram Air hood belongs on the 'birds, and, being a 'bird man myself, I'm gonna go ahead and prefer the R/A hood

SS hood... the RA hood doesn't go with the third gen body style, IMO.

I love ths SS hood and went with it on my 91 Z28....the Ram Air hood almost looks like there is "to much" hood when it's put on a 3rd Gen Camaro....
