Cant decide what to do with my cars apperaence

So i recently bought a new car off the board and am thrilled with it but I feel like i want to change up the appearance a little bit but am not sure how so im looking for suggestions. This is my favorite body style of any F-body cause i think it looks very sleek and uncluttered so that makes it hard for me to come up with how to change it up. I was thinking maybe a ram-air hood or some kind of red stripe? but i really dont know.

who's car was that and why is there a hoop? do you only like that particular body? you could get a trans am hatch with the raised wing and a different front bumper. there are lots of different hoods too that look good on birds

A Ram Air I hood always looks good on the 4.1 birds. Clear front corner markers either left alone or tinted a bit with niteshades would smooth out the front of the car even more.

I am going to suggest a wash and wax.

After that, maybe a white or silver 70's style center stripe.

It is a ram-air hood but it's a little different than the 95-97 Firehawk and WS6 hood.
