Need Some Help

Ok paint should be coming soon (in the next month or so) so im going to go ahead and get my new hood at the same time...

i really want the ultra-z hood but its gonna run almost $900 after shipping..

does anyone know anywhere to get the hood for cheaper?

if not how about some other suggestions for what hood would look good..

and maybe some photochops grant

I rather like the Z hood. I was kinda on the fence about it till I really got a good look at it from some one at the LS1.com forums. Before then I was thinking Cowl. Seems functional and cool. I did a photo chop of what it would look like on my car, and I rather like it. The only thing thats keeping me on the fence, is some people say that the hood quality is ****. So I dunno.


Some pics...



My chop


My other idea




P.S. 2Poor4Z, I love your license plate!! Laughed my *** off when I saw that shizit! I'd like to do the same, but change it to say "2POR4SS" or "2POR4TA" .

Sorry, but for brand new that seems to be the going price. $735.00 before shipping. The best I can offer is to keep your eyes peeled on ebay for a used one . I just saw a ram air going for $350 a min. ago.

rob thats not the Z hood...that looks like the mecham.

and i say go with ultra z. take AJs car for example...dark green/teal would be badass. as for where to find it...SLP or eBay. since its a manufacturer specific hood i dont think it will be found as a replica.
