Hood louvers

Hi I live in the eastbay and have been looking for some hood louvers for my hood. The one on my driver's side flew off while I was on the freeway last week. I have checked at all the pick n pulls around here and haven't had any luck. Does anyone have any that they would like to sell or know where I could possibly find some?
Thanks

Re: Hood louvers

You could probably get a set from places like Year One, but that would be the most expensive way to go. Check e-bay, and stay on top of your PNPs, their stock should rotate somewhat frequently.

The PNP's around here suck. I mainly go to the one in Richmond and Oakland, and its always the same camaros everytime. I rarely ever see a new third gen camaro there.

Re: Hood louvers

might be worth a drive into the Sac area for you, there are quite a few good PNPs there. Just check through our nor-cal threads, i am sure they are listed here somewhere.

I've been to both PNPs here in Sac & its pretty bare, plenty of 3rd gens, but just stripped, crashed or thrashed.

Re: Hood louvers

GM Sports Salvage in Milpitas has tons of thirdgens, but those guys tend to ask the moon for most of their stock. I used to go there regularly for odds and ends when I needed something, and I may go one of these days again, but after the dude quoted me 5 or so bills for an iroc steering wheel that was in decent shape, I stopped going. If you absolutely need something, they will probably have it, but be prepare to pay that "have to have it" price.
