Ya but my problem is that I like everything else about the SS front facia (wider chin spoiler, wider lower grill, corner kick outs). I'll figure something out. BTW - those front facias are not as easy to change as a hood is.

3) mustang GTs have a fake hood scoop, just like my mustang GT. i thought it was cool at the time.
4) although many grownups know they dont need a fake scoop, there is a crowd out there who has to have some kind of scoop/stripes/spoilers/etc. so that scoop looks like a compromise but it definitely flows with the lines of the car and non-enthusiasts probably will think that it is a real scoop anyway since other camaros in the past had real ones.
RS/SS would not change the scoop. Front facia on SS remains the same when RS is added. It is only the headlights and color of SS emblem that changes (possibly the grill).

If the KITT car look is going to get more sales then leave it in but mine will be removed. In the meantime, I think I am going to get into the aftermarket biz and go talk to a manufacturer in China about making a insert for the slit which has a little red light going back and forth......
