Im alittle partial to the WS6 Hood on Firebird/Formula's. One of the guys I work with has a Red Formula WS6 and I think it looks pretty bad ass. But IMO I think the car would look silly without lowering it first as far as apperance.

Jesus, how many times can you fit "raptor hood" in your 5 sentence paragraph. All that is is a clone of the firehawk hood basically, nothing really special about it.
Kid down the street from me has a Red 98+ Firebird with a WS6 hood, and it looks alright. But, it really needs a T/A spoiler, I think. I really don't like the look of the stock 'bird spoiler in the first place though, so I'm not saying this to bash the idea. It'ss just the T/A spoiler really makes the back end of the car stand out, plus with the honeycomb taillights, its a nice combo...

I think kthe SLP Ram Air HO hood looks better than the stock WS6 hood, because is doesn't have the "divider" between the upper scoops on the hood and the lower scoops on the bumper.

i agree with fred that the firehawk/raptor style hood is better looking, but the factory ram air hood still looks sweet

If you're gonna pay for a hood, I would get the firehawk/raptor hood.

raptor hoods dont fit as well as oem ws6 hoods, so haveing a poor fitting hood =hideous..
oooh yeah......when calling a 4th gen firebird ugly, you must first look in your own sig and see what you have..... it might make you keep your mouth shut

I like the SLP hood but they kinda screwed me over on one when i ordered it ! 1" gaps around the while thing you could fit two fingers in them ! So i'm gonna stick with a metal ws6 hood when I decide to change hoods. ( plus the SLP one weighs 2x the amount of the stock TA hood )

The stock T/A spoiler is the best for the cars. Already got the honeycomb tailiights so i'm half way there. I want the raptor hood badly. Just cant seem to come up with the money for it.
