The spot isn't in the hood. The under side of the hood is the same, but the top skin is different. the original Z28/IROC-Z hood is molded where the louvers go. There is a lip then it recesses. If you just cut it out, you'll be buying a new hood!!!

Here's something to look at if you have a standard RS hood such as myself.
