92 Z28 scoops on a 92 RS hood?

Hello
Can I put 91-92 Z28 stock hood scoops on a 92 RS hood?
Is there a difference between a 92 RS hood and a 92 Z28 hood?
Cause a friend can sell me a set of hood scoops from a 92 Z28 but I don't know if I can put them on my RS hood.
Thanks for your help

You will need his hood to install them on your RS. Otherwise they will just be bolted up on top of your hood and look like crap.

The hood blisters (scoops) will not directly fit onto an RS hood. You will need a 85-90 z28/Iroc-Z or 91-92 Z28 hood.

Edit: I just saw your in France. That's awesome. I'm sure there aren't too many thirdgens over there.

the z28 hoods have indents in them for the blisters to fit into, your rs hood doesn't have any holes for the mounting bolts either (if they're bolted in, they may be clip in, I dunno Im a Firebird guy)

HawkThirdGenParts.com sells the blisters that are made to fit on the flat hood...

http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/in...ROD&ProdID=129

They go for $130 a pair, and you would need to drill holes in your flat hood, along with some prep work to get them to work.

Good luck!
