    Only an opinion but I think the factory scoop looks much better.

    I like seeing something different! Out of curiosity, is it functional (for underhood clearance)? What you got under there?

    I have a white Non-Scooped hood, that was given to me. Could you make me a Cowl Induction Hood?

    Thank you sir

    I agree that the scooped hood looks great but why have a nonfunctional scoop that creates the awful glare and does nothing....and looks like everyone else .

    Thank you

    It is very functional . we cut out a section of the skin to make it functional

    It's actually off a Firebird so close to a Camaro

    Why Nascar ?

    I'm keeping it for when I eventually sell the truck .

    I almost spit out my water when I saw this pick . Too funny !

    I would recommend going to a local bodyshop to make one for you . I am in El Paso , TX and by the time you pay for all the shipping , it would be more than the cost of the custom work......but if you were closer , I would do it in a heartbeat .

    I do have the blower .

    This is one of the huge factors that helped me go this route . I thought about cutting the OEM scoop to make it functional but it actually wouldn't do anything either because there is no intake on top of the motor .
