How many hood bumper stops are required?
I've purchased a 1992 Z28 that had a bolt on (dzus fasteners) fiberglass cowl hood. I'm installing a factory hood, and I need to put on the hood bumper stops. The car had none installed, so my question is how many do I need?
Also, I've only found these for sale on Hawk's

Do local parts stores normally stock these?
Thanks in advance!!

I want to say I have two and I would think a local parts store would stock these, not sure though.

I've got 4....2 up front and 2 more close to the windshield. The back 2 are on the bases of the hood hinges and I'm pretty sure theres a notch on each side in the bottom of the hood that catches under the rubber bumper when I close the hood.

Pick them up.. hold them chest high, then drop them...

Hi Nick! Good to see you joining your third gen brothers!
(I have 4 total, the rears are all jacked up)
The front 2 are like the ones you posted, the rears are part of the hinge as mentioned before.
