newer model HD hood on square?
 

how would a newer model HD hood around 08 or maybe the 2012 ones look on a square? i have a friend who can make it happen or so he says but how would it look, i have never seen a square with those type of hoods?

You'd have a squarish cowl in the middle of your hood so it might look cool.

Think about cutting a thin intake vent like the new Camaros have at the bottom of the cowl...that would be interesting!

hmm that might look nice i think about it because there charging me to 200 for everything idk how much would the intake cut be? ill post on my build if i do it

No idea, try to find a cheap vent on ebay and take it to your fab guy to see.

Can't imagine it would be alot to cut a vent in.

I don't think anyone has ever put that new style hood on a square. I'd like to see it if you do.

there's a truck by moms house that has that hd hood and the tx edition silverado replicas. I'll try to take a picture when i go by.

Who knows the photshop guys might be able to work some of that black magic they posses for photos :lol: and give you and idea of what it would look like

Most likely they'd have to take the original hood, then blend the skin from the newer hood into it.

I have seen a square body hood where someone raised the center portion to look like the newer trucks. There was a picture floating around here long ago. I actually think this would be a much easier to pull of, and it will turn out looking better just because you are simply extending the basic shape, rather than introducing newer lines and curves that may not mix will with the overall look of the truck.

if i remeber correctley there was a pic of a truck that had a duramax swapped into it with the raised center of the hood more to resemble the newer raised Hd hood i thought i saved the pic cus it was neat but i guess i didnt

You can get an aftermarket HD hood for around $160. I just bought one to do my tbss. I think it would look good on a square if done correctly. Post it over in the Photoshop section and see what they can do. Or just move this thread over.
