I like it. Much better now that it's the same color as the car, wasn't sure about it in primer black. _________________ 92 Camaro

| That looks good, although I still lean towards the stock hood. The paint and the fitment looks like it belongs there. I would like to see it in person. |

Shame on you for runing a perfectly stock, perfectly clean GTA.
heheh, just kidding Mike, I dig the new cowl hood. Being a matching color is a plus. _________________

Still one of the cleanest lookin' birds around. I still like the stock hood better, but that's not to say I dont like the new hood  |

Give it to me and I'll fix it. Sounds like your having some regrets? You did keep the original hood, right? You could always switch them now and then. Keeps people confused.  |

hehe I am not having regrets. Just playing off of some of the sentiment from my crewbies since the hood showed up
I was ready for a little bit of a change. I'll run this for a while, can switch to the other whenever I want. Between the exhaust note and the hood I have become a lightning rod on the street - everyone wants to go. Fortunately I am a M.ature R.esponsible A.dult
I am curious to weigh the car. Between the hood and brakes I should be a little bit lighter.
Thanks for your feedback folks.

LOL! My car is a pig. Everything I do adds weight. It challenges the fundamental question, can pigs fly?  |

I'm all about the stock TA/GTA hood. I love them, and and one who thinks anything else just looks wrong on the car.
I feel similarly about teh GTA wheels - there just aren't many wheels that look right on a firebird.
To each his own, though. I pass no judgement on Mike as a man; I only pass judgement on what he thinks looks good.
