Re: need help with my hood

It sounds like you're describing the hood blisters on the 92 hood. Of course, really depends on your definition of "little plastic covers"

Re: need help with my hood

Do the flaps open? Looks like a 1984 Z28 hood from GM. This was before they put louvers there.

The flaps don't move but they can be removed I was thinking of some kinda billet inserts or something I may just paint them black looks good for an 84

Re: need help with my hood

I have 90 iroc, and need a hood, found an 85, I have seen in sale ads all hoods 81-91 are interchangeble, but read somewhere in the past the 88-91 fit more cleanly at the nose
