Who has this hood? 93-97 TA Cowl

It's available @ Hawk's for $450. If you have the hood, please post a picture of it on your car. I have a red TA that I'm interested in purchasing a hood for.

I saw a generic picture of the hood painted on a red TA, but it was very plain and I didn't like it. I'd like to see some better pics.

Thanks.

IMO you need to be really fast to put that hood on the car.

That's the point, right? :secret:

I like cowls but that hood doesn't look like it lines up too good and has too much gap between the fenders n bumper

I think it would look pretty good if it were painted to match. Its not the everyday Ram Air hood.

LOL! Yes but that hood deserves a 12 sec car or faster.
I do like it BTW

Thats the plan :)

I'm digging it too. There was a car on ProjectTransAm with this hood. It was a black TA GT and it looked great. My car needs paint pretty bad, so I'll prob get it repainted red with a lot of flakes and all of the badges painted black. Oh, and the "ceta mod" of course. So it may or may not look decent.

I wish these were more common.

I knew a guy who had that hood on his red 97 Trans Am. American Sports Car design used sell it but then it disapeared from their website.

Ive seen a few at the track they do look like they mean buisness.....
My buddy had one on his camaro and it was loud as hell the only prob was he had a high 14 sec car!!! LOL!

Lol , I agree or at least somewhat quick.

[IronOutlaw]

It would look better on a formula.

I kinda disagree. Its not an obnoxious cowl hood, I've seen bigger ones lol. So that means that stick/lightly modded Camaros cant have sunocco hoods or small cowl hoods for that matter either if they dont make big power or arent that fast? Just throwin that out there too.. Theres really no difference between putting a sunocco hood/cowl hood on a stockish Camaro and putting that cowl hood on a stockish T/A or Formula. Didnt mean to pick on you, but rather just pointing that out.

I actually think it looks pretty good. I dont think its over done, and isnt misleading. Its a fairly small cowl hood, and makes the car look a lot better too IMO.

Wow, didnt even see it! Then again, I'm a noob to ltxtech. Thanks for posting that!

edit- no one on here actually has one? From what I see, I like it!

[HoLLo]

That hood does not belong on a TA at ALL!!

I found this pic of a cowl on a formula and I think it looks sick, but I have a trans am and I dont like it quite as much on my car.

i have since primed the car all black, ill get some matching pictures soon.

[harner]

It looks great on Formulas!

And HoLLo- I'm still not decided. I love cowl hoods - I have a 4" harwood on my Iroc. But, I REALLY like the US Exotics' Warbird hood (ramair). I would rather have that, but they're not being made anymore. So, the cowl is the next step.

Here is the front of my car...

I have since put a highrise on the back and changed to some chrome stockers. It's getting a fresh new 383, and some drivetrain work. I figure it's time for cosmetics as well since the clearcoat is peeling off everywhere.
