Re: hood n shocks
The shocks I would get at Kragen or autozone. Dont waste your time at the junkyards looking for a pair that wont even last 2 years. Hood: Much harder. You can buy a new one or go to the Junkyards. Check the classifieds on here. Also keep your eyes on craigslist.

Re: hood n shocks
Orielys, autozone, napa, advanced all have the hood shocks. Like forty a pair. Hood, ya junkyards or craigslist. I don't know if I would buy off here unless someone is driving distance. I am sure shipping is a little expensive. The louvers are going to cost the most

Re: hood n shocks
It's got an (RS) or regular hood on it now and I'm wanting the Iroc hood for the louvers.. Could I just by the louvers and put them on? IDK is that even possible?

Re: hood n shocks
I just googled Iroc hood louvers and came accross some on ebay. Do they just glue or 3M on or how are they put on? Appreciate the help guys.

Re: hood n shocks
No, you cant glue the louvers on becuase they would rest on top and not only look terrible but there is the chance of them flying off. You have to have the Iroc hood because those are indented for the louvers. The hoods have these tabs on them that hold the louvers on. So it's best to buy the Iroc hood and then sell your RS hood. Recently picked up a pair of hood shocks from autozone for about $30.
