Anybody have any good links (active) to a flat aftermarket fiberglass hood? at a good price I dont see the reasoning of paying 500 dollars for a hood that isnt as extravegant as others.

So a resonably price fiberglass flat hood (no louvers, raised thingamajigs, cowl or other nonsense) .

ah to have an rs....why won't someone come up with a z28/iroc version???

 

Kandied91Z: My exact thought! I am also looking for one.

 

I have a z28 fiberglass hood on my 89 rs....i have tried to find it online but haven;t been able to. a stock replacement one anyway that doesn't use pins. Unless im confused, there's my two cents

well to my knowledge no one has ever made a iroc style z28 hood in fiberglass. gm did make their earlier z28 hoods in fiberglass for a short time.

 

You probably have the 82-84 style Z-28 hood then

 

dont mean to sound dumb, but what is the actual difference in the hood. May not be important but I am curious and would like to know.

picture would be nice

the indentations where the louvers would go. they are different dimensions. post a picture of your hood.

 

I know that 85 to 92 are the same for the Z28s except for the hood ornaments

 

Factory 82 'glass hood (technically SMC or sheet molded compound, but who's counting?)

 

I totally AGREE!!!!

Will the 91-92 blisters fit the 82-84 factory fiberglass (SMC) hood?

 

Nope the blisters wont fit.

 

Any particular reason?
I've seen blisters put on the IROC Hood and the fiberglass RS hood. Why not the old factory glass (SMC) hood? Couldn't they be placed over the indentations?

 

I guess if you wanted to put them on the 82-84 hood you could. It just wont be a bolt on like the Iroc hoods. You could put them over the indentations but Im not sure if the blisters would be flush. I say give it a shot. Might have to fab the hood a little bit but a fiberglass hood with the hood blisters would look sweet and be light

 

BE CAREFUL with this company! They ripped me off for $400!

 

BBB report on them

 

Been there, done that. They(up22)don't even return the BBB phone calls/mail request. It baffles me that they are still in business???
