Default good idea, bad idea?

know the trans am shaker hood scoop?
well my plan is to put a funtional one on the 350 im putting in my truck
i think it will look amazing popping out of my hood and will also increase performance as well
so wat do u guys think?
the shaker would also go well with the trans am vents im puttin in the side of my front fenders
(i already have the trans am vents just got to cut out the opening and paint the vents)
might do that this weekend so ill give u guys pics after its done
to do it?
or to not do it?

Go for it. I want to see pics.
I also want to vent my hood, but have to be careful in how I do it.

alright cool
my dad had been in the auto body business for like 30 years now so it will be FAIRLY easy for him and i to do
just will take a while to get each vent done but it will be so worth it!

go ahead and dooo it, it depends on the body style as to what its gonna look like though. i'll reserve judgement until i see it, but usually mix & match doesnt look too good unless theres a LOT of thought put into it... some shapes dont fit the bodystyles, curves dont match, etc etc....

its going to be for cosmetics, theres not much of a performance gain there if any.
