Slightly crazy idea for a hood...

A friend of mine has a '78 Camaro hood scoop in his garage. While I was over there the other day, I had the idea to lay it on the hood of my prix because i'm looking into something a little different. Didn't take pics unfortunately, but i think it looked alright. Anyway, how do you all think it would look?

here's a white one for reference

Honestly OP, it doesn't matter what anyone thinks except you. I have my own custom hood...some like it, some don't. I don't get offended when someone doesn't like it. It's mine and I love it. If it's something YOU like, I say go for it. Be different!
 
Some people on this forum like to mess with you if you dont have a scoop that was made for your car. i have a ws6 scoop and get alot of s*** from some people. if its what you want to do then do it . its your car but also look around into other hoods and designs that might intrigue you also..
 
better to be differant then everyone with an SD hood like me lol atleast know one from around where i live has one
 


blending is really tricky on those ends like that i had to redo my hood after i primered it and noticed my faults. it does pay off to check your work twice though. also you could make it a working air vent if you wanred by cutting the hood in the right places but if its your DD i wouldnt recomend it . it would only be there for the knowlege its a working scoop

lol i did mine while it was still on in between taveling to school and work and back. Spare parts must be nice:)
iced are you doing yours on another hood or yours? prolly preety cheap at the junk yard to just get another hood. less hassle.
 


I'll see about picking up another hood and trying to do this. It'll be my first attempt at body work but I have a friend who's got several years experience working with high-end cars in cali, so I'm sure I could get him to help me out if needed.
