Default Hood options

Sitting here looking at 3800performance.com and I see they have a lot of hoods for grand prix's/am's. Does anyone know if a grandprix hood is similar to our monte's? I have an 03 SS and this is the hood i would love to get, or one similar to it.

Your link goes to a bunch of hoods, what style do you want?

The most common is the camaro scoop for our cars

If you were really interested in a hood like that, you would have to find yourself a nice body guy who will do the custom project and get scoops like that (made of metal) and cut your stock hood and weld and make you that hood.

The time to convert a Grand Prix hood to fit would probably be just as much work ON TOP of having to buy an additional hood.

The SS hood is definitely the best aftermarket option as far as looks go.
