Slightly crazy idea for a hood...

**Iced Iridium** · 05-29-2012

A friend of mine has a '78 Camaro hood scoop in his garage. While I was over there the other day, I had the idea to lay it on the hood of my prix because i'm looking into something a little different. Didn't take pics unfortunately, but i think it looked alright. Anyway, how do you all think it would look?

here's a white one for reference

not really a fan of that scoop on anything but that's just my opinion

It pretty much like shawns car, befor he sold it.

Honestly OP, it doesn't matter what anyone thinks except you. I have my own custom hood...some like it, some don't. I don't get offended when someone doesn't like it. It's mine and I love it. If it's something YOU like, I say go for it. Be different!

Some people on this forum like to mess with you if you dont have a scoop that was made for your car. i have a ws6 scoop and get alot of s*** from some people. if its what you want to do then do it . its your car but also look around into other hoods and designs that might intrigue you also..

better to be differant then everyone with an SD hood like me lol atleast know one from around where i live has one

Just saw the pic of Shawn's hood.... that's about exactly how I want it to look

Are you going to be blending it in or just sticking it on. hopefully blending right?

**Iced Iridium** · 05-29-2012

most definitely blending it. but it's going to have to wait until i get a few more power mods first..

**ctracer** · 05-29-2012

i like the way it looks personally. i say go for it

**Utter99** · 05-29-2012

blending is really tricky on those ends like that i had to redo my hood after i primered it and noticed my faults. it does pay off to check your work twice though. also you could make it a working air vent if you wanred by cutting the hood in the right places but if its your DD i wouldnt recomend it . it would only be there for the knowlege its a working scoop

i might just make a custom hood for the hell of it out of my stock hood, why not

**Sven the Sexman** · 05-29-2012

That's what I did...I don't regret it. lol

**gtpeddie** · 05-29-2012

i already have an SD hood though lol

lol i did mine while it was still on in between taveling to school and work and back. Spare parts must be nice

iced are you doing yours on another hood or yours? prolly preety cheap at the junk yard to just get another hood. less hassle.

**Sven the Sexman** · 05-29-2012

I had a 185lb deer imprinted hood lmao

BTW, sorry for the slight thread jack. Now build that hood!!

**Iced Iridium** · 05-29-2012

I'll see about picking up another hood and trying to do this. It'll be my first attempt at body work but I have a friend who's got several years experience working with high-end cars in cali, so I'm sure I could get him to help me out if needed.
