Thinking of getting a new hood..
 
I've been searching alot and thinking I would like to get a new hood. For the longest time I couldn't figure out what hood I had. Turns out it is an slp ho hood. Anyway, I think I like the wsq ? I want something with a higher side profile than the ws6 hood though.. Opinions of what you guys think and what are some good sites to check out. Thanks !

Ws9 hood is a ws6 hood with little triangle vents back towards the windshield

The WSQ has the higher profile you're looking for, but it just looks like the inside of a rivers butthole. If the WS6 doesn't scream enough for you, then the WS9 offers a bit more of that "Oooh, look at me!" factor.
In either scenario, you can get a "LS1" decal for the cowls!!

Is that the same as the super hawk hood?

Haha, yeah I like the ," oooh look at me!" Factor to be honest lol.. But the ws9 is larger right?

I don't believe so, the wsq hood as large heat extractors on the nostrils

Are you looking for ram air or cowl? Im thinking of picking up the new vfn lt1 firebird cowl hood. Basically a look alike ls vette sunoco hood

Looking for a cowl, seeing as I don't have the ram air intake setup.

Mechanic hood is pretty sick looking, but I kinda wanted something with a higher side profile

I personally love the WSQ but feel the cars needs the right wheels/stance to pull it off...

The car i imaginethe hoods are for is the 97 in italians sig. So the 98+ hoods mean nothing. Or am i missing something?

deadtrend1 05-22-2013 04:56 AM

Ohhhhh.... Yes in that case ls style front ends only look good with a ram air hood imo
