Default EVI hood

I was leaning towards a 6" glasstek bolt on or maybe just a 5", but now I just saw a local shop makes this http://engineeredvictories.com/corvettehood/

Still idk kinda pricey, I'll have to see if they got a full car pic.

Have to agree with 7t9182. It would be better with the opening on the back side. Not quite sure what it is about it, maybe the way the scoop is not the same height all the way back, but I don't really care for it, and I like the L88 hood.

Just my taste, but it does not look right to me. But if it makes you happy then it is the perfect hood for you.
