if your gonna paint carbon fiber, might as well get straight fiberglass. The carbon hood would look sick on a gun metal gray or black car unpainted. Im not a use fan of really high cowl hoods, Im truely in love with the 4th gen ss style hood and thats why I went with it, not too high, gives a little different look, i also would take the sunoco or the big block hood would be in my close second.'91 Camaro Modded, LSx, House of Kolor Intense White, lowered, GS chrome 18" wheels, 14" Brembo CTS-V on all 4 corners, LS rear end, FP suspension components

Thats what I was thinking I like the look of carbon fiber. I am starting to lean more towards the sonoco though. It's about 3" tall in the center. The carbon hood is 4".Originally posted by Gregs_gsxr View Postif your gonna paint carbon fiber, might as well get straight fiberglass.

Sunoco if I had to pick. Honestly I like just the stock, flat hood without the vents in the center on 3rd gen Camaros. The car doesn't need any additional lines/edges, it has enough already.

Yeah I would like to run a flat hood but my intake carb and air cleaner wont allow it.Originally posted by birdie2000 View PostSunoco if I had to pick.

The Sunoco (or mine at least) was setup to run a carb pan. I had to cut it to run my three point brace. It's getting the underside cut different and glassed. Here is how it looks now just so everything fit:
