It would definitely qualify for your level of quality build.

Using cardboard and fiberglass mat would be cheaper though.

I had a Ebay WS6 hood on my 98 firebird. You can see pics of it on the car on my Fquik page. I got it from Tamarez hoods on ebay..

In that case, save some money, and take this route.

Take you're time, it can come out professional looking lol. Seriously, you could graph a cowl onto your existing hood, and blend it in with the glass.

I think the whole issue is that he doesn't have a hood in the first place....

I think you will need to be more specific.
He has a LS(something) car, with an LT1 front on it.
He is not running a lid/filter and wants to go back to a LS1 front end. So, the need for a LS1 hood comes forth, and why buy stock when you can get a fiber glass hood to ruin?
I think that sums this abortion.

The LT abomination/awesome Reddit comic could give him a chance to learn how to/spruce up on his skills working with fiberglass/composites. didn't know he was going back to an LS1 front end anytime soon. Also it's because I had a spare LT hood in my back yard, and didn't know if he needed a hood.
