if you do it right, i think it looks good, however some other people think that it looks like crap...take a look at RamAirZ's car. he did it up reeeeel good i like the black cars with the RAII hoods better than any other color..and then you can get into color schemes like white stripes or red stripes on the scoops and whatnot. plus not too many have RAII hoods on their camaros.

I thought of putting it on my 92 25th and add black stripes on it but I think the stripes would be to skinny up front to match the factory size in the rear.

I really like it, but for a car like mine i though it was overkill.....

So i went with the SS Hood....

It looks good with a Z28 spoiler out back to match the attitude of the hood.....

Yeah I got the Z spoiler and thought it matches good but I think it would be over kill on mine. It does look good on most of the ones I have seen on the net but I have never seen one in person. Oh well I guess the grass is always greener. I do like the SS hood but I think the classic Cowl is what I need to go with.
