I'm pretty sure the answer is "No".
Maybe if we all post here, we might be able to get enough interest for a sponsor like Hawks to make one for us as a group purchase.

id definitly be interested in one. i was thinkin about gettin an aftermarket SS or cowl but i have nuthing to back it up the rest of the body is stock and it will stay that way except for wheels and theyll probably be 17" irocs with the accents painted grey. hook us upw ith a fiberglass stock style, benefit of lightweight and retains stock looks

I agree! I would love to have a fiberglass stock style IROC hood....I was thinking an SS hood, cowl hood, but I love the style of the IROC hood so much better than any other hoods for the thirdgen. So if anyone decides to make one, my IROC will be a good home to it.

I don't like the daytona hood much, but I wonder what a Jongbloed IROC hood would look like....

Yeah, I know what you mean.
My stock has a small ding, and I doubt it will come out. Thinking of a replacement, I was surprised nobody made a stock replacement fiberglass IROC hood.
At least I know I'm not the only one who likes the look of it!

that's also true, however i believe the indentions are alot different then the newer years. some people have take the "rs" style hood and just made it work but that's alot to do and even in it's best can't compare to one had it been molded right.

I have a fiberglass hood with the indents, i think its off an 82, its not an iroc hood rather a z28 hood, it has 2 silver inserts. I dont think that they came with louvres but im sure you can make some... Actually i have it for sale in the classifieds, i live in Canada so look in the southern ontario clubs classifieds.

Yes I'm in for a stock looking glass hood. I'm not big on the the cowl induction aftermarkets. I like the look of a stock Iroc hood. The stock hood itself must weigh freakin' 300 pounds! I'm in!

the 82-84 Z28 style hoods indentations are not long enough nor wide enough for louvers. can we get a stickey for this if its possible to get one produced.

im sure someone can custom make the louvres, persoanlly, i think louvres look whack, now if they were functional that would be cool.

you want function out of the iroc hood? give me your hood, a sawzall, and about 2 hrs... ill make it functional... muuahhaha!
sorry. I like the jongblowed hood, but want it with the louvers!! I like the slight, smooth rise in the hood. If there were louvers put in that hood, i would get one when the time came.
