My idea for a hood

I got an idea for a hood for my car the other day. I want to have the stock air "inlets" of the 93-97 hood stay the same size, but between those inlets I want a bit of a cowl. I don't want the cowl to be as sharp as all of them seem to be. I want the cowl to be very similar to the lines of the SS hood but not have an intake.

If that made sense and if anyone knows anybody who makes something like that let me know.

VFN makes one exactly like you are takling about but like you said it is kinda sqaure and sharp. but i kinda understand that you want a small cowl with similar curves as the SS. hmmmm, idk what you could do to get that. take a stock hood and fiberglass to it.hehe

VFN is having that Sunoco or whatever hood the ProjectCamaro has soon for the LT1 hoods...is that what your talking about, that style cowl induction hood...

Sorta, but I don't want a huge cowl. I think I'd be happy with a 1-1.5 inch cowl.

I want to keep the inlets on the stock hood the same size. I checked VFN out and most of their hoods look like those inlets are smaller, plus I want smoother edges on the cowl.
