Building a 95' SS Clone, Have several questions for ya'll.... Alrighty, I'm ordering an SS hood and spoiler soon...
1) Currently, who makes the best fitting SS hood? I'm going for the LT1 Style SS hood...
2) Should I go with an LT1 SS Spoiler, or LS1 SS Spoiler? I think the LS looks better, but the LT would be more correct...
3) Badges, I wouldn't put SS badges on it, but if I do it will cover up a couple blemishes that were caused by the current emblem. I let someone besides me re-clear the front fenders and they just taped off around the current emblem, and now the clear is peeling, if I put on the SS badges, it'll completely cure that problem. ALSO, what color badges should I get? I'm wanting to go with a black and red-outlined SS badges, to match the roof, red calipers, and berger panel with red bowtie... i think it would look nice. Also, I'll probably have a couple more red SS accents put throughout the car...
4) How wide of a tire/wheel combo can be ran up front? I'd like to run a 10" or 11" wheel front and rear... If not, I'll just stick an 11" out back with a 315...
I think that's all I have, I'd like some input, I'll post a couple pics in a minute...
Thanks guys

if you like the LS1 better spoiler I say go for it...I have no idea how big of a wheel you can run up front but id be careful with that, my car came with 315s on my 17x9 ZR1s when I bought it the front tires just did rub when it was turned, so I got them replaced with the proper 275s.
