well i got my hood in and on.. everything looks great other than theres a few nicks (3) that are really small, but the gelcoat is chipped off, but ill fix all that when i paint it (dec / jan). Still have to put on my 92 front bumper cover / lower gfx, and z28 highrise wing, and some other goodies. tomorrow im cutting the back of it out so the cowl is open, ill post pics and how i did it after. also how did everyone get there wipers to not hit.. the middle wont be a problem cause im removing the backing, but what about the other one (right one if your looking at the front). any details would be great.. anyhow heres the pics, the last one is just an underhood shot cause everyone always asks what it looks like underneath.. even though its not a great pic, its something.. comments please.

 

front

 

under

 

looks good

 

How much and from where did you get it? It doesn't come functional I take it since you are cutting out the back....looks nice, can't wait to get mine!

rex gave me an insane deal, ordered and talked to him.. 350+15box fee + 59s&h to business not bad if you ask me...

 

Looks nice, i got all excited when i put mine on the car.....

Have you ever seen another 3rdGen in real life with one?? I have yet to see it on another car....

If you are gonna be repainting the car, I highly suggest getting rid of that antenna......It's small, but IMO it ruins the look of any car.....

 

o definatly.. i still have alot of body things to do / install before im ready for paint.. shell turn some heads

 

good to see another SS hood in the family! My wipers clear my SS hood fine...I didn't have to shave...or cut anything.

 

Another point to bring up, it looks as though it's not centered between the fenders(1 side looks real close) to avoid rubbing issues, i placed a small washer in the screw to push it a little away from the fender....

 

Aligning Hoods is an art of patience and Trying not to get soo mad you take a hammer to the hood

 

get me a deal like that

looks sweet I just was thinkin yesterday I may do it too...but I also was wondering about opening up the rear so You can see in there...let me know how it turns out and some pics of it cut would be cool,thats why I loved my Daytona hood on my old 84-Z cause I could see the top of the motor

 

yea alignment isnt perfect yet but its pretty close, i put it on the night of the track meet so i could show it off so i didnt have alot of time, but it was pretty close.. im pretty happy with the front alignment to, i dont think you can get it any lower can you, or do you have to move the nose piece of up a little?

 

 

I love the look of those hoods. If I had a Camaro, thats the hood I would go with.

 

Adjusting the hood does take alot of time u might also have to adjust the fenders. So where did u get that hood u have a web adress i might get one after i get done polishing my wheels. I think my car need some kinda raised hood.

 

bought it directly through rex ( the owner of ASCD ) link, at the top of the page for his website, american sports car design, i think he has the deal now for 375 but im not sure, email and ask him.

 

well tonight we cut the back out of it, and it looks amazing.. ill have some pics tomorrow after work, but it was pretty straight forward and easy.. also on the ss hood, the left side sticks up more then the other side, like it gets hung up on those rubber stoppers on the sides, sticks like like 1/4" how can i make it sit lower on the side, thanks.

 

cool ....cant wait to see the pics

 

looks good

 

He is right, call and talk to Rex. I got mine at a great price as well and saved a little more by picking up directly from ASCD a few weeks ago.

As for the wipers.....I have the same problem, but figure it was due to nothing forward of the firewall lining up like it should.

After doing a search I see now that it is just a matter of getting the hood and fenders adjusted correctly..

 

looks good. hopefully ill be gettin one in the future. i think they look badass.

 

has any one made the ss hood functional, and have the intake butt up to it?? like on the slp ss ?? if so picts would b appreciated..

 

The hood looks awesome. Personally if I were to select an aftermarket hood for my car I'd go with a cowl, but I have to admit the shape of that hood design really accents the car quite well!

 

Hey Kid, what color is your car?
