You can order them through GM but they are very expensive or search the Classified section for some, there was 3 sets for sale awhile ago.

I may be wrong but I hink if you want the blisters on your car you will need a IROC/Z28 hood. It can be one that has the blck louvers, but you need the indents in the hood for the blisters to sit right.

Yep,you will need to get an IROC hood so that the blisters would fit.The plain hood is curved while the blisters are flat on the bottom.
