Third gen SS hood
Anyone know where i can get a 4th gen style SS hood for my IROC? I have seen the ASCD SS hood, its ok but i dont like how is kinda squared off and stays high behind the intake. I want one that is smooth like the real SS hood. anyone know who makes one like that?

Because of the shape of our hoods I doubt you will ever find a 'real" SS hood. They don't curve as much. The ASCD one is designed after the 97 SS hood, which is does a very good job replicating. I've had mine next to a 97 SS. The 98+ is a different look, but the hood is also more slanted, that is how they got it to be that smooth...
Good luck in your search, though.

So you think the ASCD hood is the closest to a real SS hood that ill find? Is it really a good match to the 97SS? Like how close would you say it is? Thanks for the help.
