I have a spare hood left over from our truck that got wrecked and I was looking to use it to design either a Camaro ZL1 style hood or a Silverado HD style hood (with the louvres near the windshield) for the colorados, but before I do so I just want to gauge interest.

Thoughts feelings guys?

A while ago there were some pictures with a couple rado's with HD hoods, down in Texas I believe. I don't remember who posted it, it was a while ago.

Matt had one made, downtime.

I love the idea, 2 down sides to after market hoods.

1. Cost, most on here won't pay $500 for a hood.
2. Shipping, they are a pain in the ass to ship.

Fair points on both accounts.

Cost is always a concern when dealing with exterior parts

Matt (Downtime) had one made one a while back. I don't think he was ever able to sell it.

I'd like to see a hd hood built. With the louvers and a ram air scoop.

I know this has nothing to do with the choices above, but I have always been partial to the cts-v hoods with the subtle cowl and center crease. I have often wondered what that would look like on our hood. There is enough surface area to pull it off and make it look oem.

~~~let that marinate~~~

edit: I guess I would have to choose the HD hood. Closest match. I wouldn't buy one though.

Here you go, the two that are known about and in my opinion, the absolute coolest hood ever on a 355.

^ That looks awesome

Those look pretty cool, my favorite hood out there is the one a guy made from Idaho. Can't remember his screen name but his truck was lowered and then he lifted it. It was kind of like a Tacoma with the scoop open in the front.

Thanks for the feedback guys, let me get with the other mad scientist and see what we can cook up in our downtime. Stay tuned.

I've always wanted to try and fab up a hood like this.

 

[Jremeee]

I think it's beautiful!

Ok, so the million dollar question, at what price point would a hood like that have to be at to appeal to the masses, for arguments sake lets disregard shipping costs
