That hood doesnt benefit me , it doesnt suite my body style , its for gt's as far as I am concerned.

yea, hood is waste of 600 - 700 dollars, i got one off ebay, imabout to resell it, just makes it look nicer, but doesnt fit my style. it weighs the same, only thing you may benifit from is a CF hood, even at that you wont benifit from it on the street only the track mabie by .01 to .1 seconds... i would say just cut a square or rectangle hole in the center of your hood w/ a dremel tool, sand the sides, cover the cutted spot with some sort of trim, then apply mesh inserts under the hood, now its custom and u get air into your hood, and you can even see your engine! (actually im thinking of doing this my self, but a little different then stated )

correction to the weight to speed thing: I was looking into this and it is said for every 100 lbs shaved off you loose .01 seconds on your QM time

Thats just the SCT hood that comes on grand ams with the SC/T kit. nothing great or new.

if you want a hood go to www.andysautosport.com for 92-95 GA's and 96-98 and 99+ go to www.aedcentral.com those are the only two places that make a hood besides RSM that makes a CF hood for the 99+
