New Wheels & Hood

Tell me what you guys think. I'm not really feeling the hood personally I might re-sell it.





Yes I know it needs to be aligned. The car doesn't run right now so theres no rush.

Looks good. Are those C5 Z06 wheels? Theyre kinda dark so I can't tell. How much for the hood (if you were to resell it)?

Hard to tell if that's a factory style stinger scoop or if it's an aftermarket style (wider). If it's factory, go for it- it will look awesome. If it's the aftermarket style, dump it like a bad habit IMO. Those look like s***.

It looks like the factory one but I can't really tell because it's unpainted and the shots are all from an angle, not head on.

Its an aftermarket RK Sport SS Competition hood which is wider then an OEM SS scoop. I've wanted one for as long as I owned an F-body and now that I have one I'm not to crazy about the look

I think what you need to do is paint the hood and put manta stripes on JUST the sides of the scoop. Would look dead sexy

I think you should go with your gut Alex. If you really don't care for the way it looks, then sell it and toss your stocker back on.

I like I think it fits your car well but like we talked about the sunoco and harwood hoods are what we love lol.

I plan on throwing the sunoco hood or harwood hood on once I finish my project but thats the last thing on my mind right now...
