While doing my daily check on Craigslist for parts I found an guy selling an z28 hood with blisters and an turbo z28 hood with louvers for a good price. The only problem is I can't decide. Either way both of the hoods is in better shape and looks better then my stock hood. Any suggestions???

I personally prefer the older z28 style hood with black louvers.

But between those two, I'd take the factory z28 hood.

Do your self a favor and "Google"/search the internet using the words = make of hood.
Click images and or type =hood type then photos and there will be MANY pictures showing each hood mounted and painted.

That's how I do it and you will be amazed at the results.

As far as the hoods go the "Daytona/Turbo" hood looks much more aggressive and really makes a statement and the other hood is more "casual".
You must chose the one that fits YOUR style.
The Daytona hood looks to be "Fiberglass" and I suggest "Hood pins" in the front.
Ask if it is direct fit using the stock hood mount/opens with the brackets on the back of the hood. Other wise it could be a total pin on hood that I do not suggest.

Out of the box some fiberglass hoods require a lot of filing and adjusting and if it was made by a company with a poor reputation it may never fit properly.

Also, find out if the Daytona hood is a "True Cowl Induction".
That means it will have an opening resembling this.

I have a hood just like Ron's could not be happier I have had a couple fiberglass hoods and to be honest I would never have another.

Between those two, I like the stock Z hood better
