I dont know. I personally dont like the large cowl hood. I think it ruins the lines of the great car if its not a needed hood. The camaro has a nice sleek look from the side. And I think the large bump takes away from the lines of the car. Not a good look IMO if there isnt a large mill under there that needs the room. JR

Some before and after pics. Oh, just my messing with the pic, its not really an after pic.
