...Okay it is several months later but here they are. They Hood Blisters you asked me about for RS(flat hoods) or IROC's(different for each car) can be found at www.eastcoastcustoms.com for $99.00. Sorry it took so long but the papers were buried in my junky office.

91zman, Are you saying they are shorter than the factory ones or the RS ones are shorter than the IROC ones?

Did you purchase from them before?

I didn't purchase anything from them.You can tell from the pictures of the blue and the green ones that they aren't like the factory ones that are on my car.Yes they are way shorter and not as wide as the factory ones are.Also the edges on those seem to be the same thickness all of the way around.The edges seem flat,straight up were as the factory ones edges are slanted and thin.The thickest part is were that black insert is. Also did you notice that those aftermarket ones are for trucks? they are going to be shorter because of a truck's short hood.

Are there any gaps between the blisters and the flat hood?Looks like there are some small gaps.Also did they bolt on nicely?

No, there are no gaps, it's the shadow from the poor lighting. And they are the factory ones. I purchased them from Year One and they came in the GM boxes.
