Cowl Hood

Anybody make a cowl hood for our rigs? I'd like one, preferably fiberglass or carbon-fiber.

those LMC cowls are on page 55 of the catalog. They look kinda wimpy to me for $500. What do you gents think?

I'm liking the regular 3" cowl, myself. Not a big fan of the GT500 style on our trucks, judging by the pictures they provided. It just looks out of place. I think the cowl looks great! That might go on my list of things to do after the turbo, and maybe before the N2O.

personally I like the cowl hoods too but I think they should be raised from two factory lines on the outer edges of the hood. Makes for a wider cowl. Might even just have to try to build my own one of these days!

yeah, see I agree with you Tim. They should also have the factory crease down the middle of the cowl as is on the hood stock. Dosnt even have to be a big ol' 3" cowl either, maybe like a 2 1/4 or so
