What looks better on a vert?

3inch Cowl or a SS hood?

I have a 3inch cowl now but I love the look of the SS hood also. (thanks to Chevy Kens vert)

 

SS

 

I have a 4" cowl on my 90 and think it great. I just don't think it looks very good on a vert. So I voted SS.

 

Z28 blisters look best IMO. but otherwise SS all the way

 

Formy!

(Installed today)

 

Im talking Camaro sorry.

I have a 3inch cowl. will get some pic's 2morrow. The car is in pieces but getting ready for primer and figured I want a SS but love my cowl also..

Mmmmmmm, desisions,desisions..

 

iroc turbo hood is my personal fav

 

2 in cowl or some sort of stock hood (IROC, Z28, anything).

Thats my opinion.

But between the 2, I say Cowl still.

 

I've always liked the iroc hoods with the blisters on the verts. But the SS is nice too. A low cowl (2") looks OK on a vert, but anything higher looks kinda tacky to me.

 

Excuse the POS looks of it now. Getting ready for paint soon. Did all the jambs










I think the 3inch cowl goes with the roll bar and 92 wing. :shrug:

I need a SS hood to mock up and see which I like better dang it.

 

I forgot what your car looked like! In your case, it's a completely different story--go with the cowl hood. It definitely goes more with the 'theme' of your car--(which is *****-to-the-wall speed). The SS hood is more of a subtle look.

And I've gotta say, your car looks mean as hell! I kinda like the multi-color, half-sanded, half-primered look. Looks tough. I wouldn't want to run into your car in a dark alley for sure!

 

I think you outa put a big a$$ blower in it and leave the hood off :grin:

BTW how low is that car??????? lol

VERRY NICE VERT MAN.

 

Thank you very much, when yours is done mine won't hold a candle to it tho.

Offtopic: still making those brake components?

----------

Wheres dean when ya need him lol.............Chris the car is gonna be kick a$$ when its done (hurry up) I hope to get to see it sometime.

 

YES!!!!!

 

i just installed that hood on my vert the day before!

 

i like the cowl on your car. it will look so awesome after paint. it makes me want to go get new panels so i have an excuse to get new paint

 

i think the ss hood looks the best by far, the cowl is old school.. and is also used on rustangs

 

go with the SS imo

 

I wish someone would just do a fiberglass version of the original. maybe one of these days???

 

How bout neither...

Go with the Jap hood. Should be done soon from Jeff.

 

None of the above. I have yet to see an after market hood that looks other than trash. aka cheap. Ohhhh look another noob's car. They all give me gas.

 

I just bought a "Stinger" hood for mine! Looks great IMO. I love the SS, but it seems like there's alot of them out there and I like to be a little differernt.

 

ram air hood?

 

Thats what I put on my 1987 Iroc-z. would look great on the vette also from the ones I have seen

 

Hey TPI383, how is that hi rise spoiler attached? Is it attached to the trunk lid or what? Anyway I think it looks good. Could you post some close up pics of it? And will your top rub on that roll cage or is the posts mounted away from where the top lays? If you could I would like to see some pics of that also? Thanks, your is going to be bad *** after its done.

 

Adding my !!!!! I think the IROC hoods with the louvers look the best.

 

wing is mounted to the deck lid as if stock. Cage is a nice fit with the top. no rubbing.

I did like the stock 91-92 hood I had but liked the cowl better.

 

I would go with the SS, The cowl just looks weird on a vert
