Pin On Cowl Hood
I'm looking for a pin on style fiberglass cowl hood for my GTA. The only one I have found so far is A 3" from Harwood for about $240. Are there any other companys that make these hoods in a larger cowl?
I don't need anything larger than a 6" cowl but need more than a 3".
I have looked into adding a glass cowl scoop to a stock steel hood, but between a steel firebird hood and the cowl scoop, Im already at about 200 bucks.
I really want a light weight fiberglass 6 cowl pin on hood for a third gen firebird but can't find one.

Id just find a bolt on hood and drill it for pins if you can't find what you want in pin-on style.

what do you mean by pin on.
Does it mean that the hood doesn't open using the stock latches?

Yeah, basicly you have to use hood pins. Here is an example, My girlfriends 2" pin on cowl for her Nova

The Hood on the yellow nova pictured is a Harwood. The fit was great and the quality is very high.
