Hey..man don't worry about what other people think. Put what YOU want on the car. I have a SS and a WS6..both real! I could care less if someone puts a SS hood,spoiler, and emblems on a Z28...so what! These cars cars for christs sake! Whats the difference if I paid 30k for a "real" SS and someone doing a COMPLETE upgrade from his Z28 to a SS. I mean the total job: appearance, suspension and power upgrades. As long as they are not telling people its a "real" SS and/or trying to get more money on a sale because the car is an "SS", that is cheating and lying. I also have a 1998 Z28 that down the road I may decide to turn it into a SS "REPLICA" and I don't care what anyone else has to say about it.
couldnt have said it better myself actually, i have ss and z/28 emblems on my car...kind of a custom touch...its originally a z28, but i call it the ssz28 ...lol, i have a ss hood, rs spoiler, rs ground effects, and grand sport rims(look like ss rims...only...bigger/better). the only thing that would be gay is if you lied about it when selling it, but otherwise, who cares what people think, 90% of the z/28 and ss first gen camaros are original 6 cylinder cars but no one seems to give them any trouble...as long as its more or less the same thing(not a 6 cyl car), who cares, on the track, u cant tell a difference between a z and ss, so why get all angry if someone badges it the way they like...do what YOU like, dont worry what people think, its YOUR car!!

When I put my WS6 wheels on my car I didn't really care for the WS6 emblems on the center caps. I would have liked to have some chrome ones with a red bird sticker.... but I can't find any.

GO FOR IT!!!! But like said above..... Don't claim its an SS when it isn't..... there is a guy in town with a V6 mustang with a Cobra R hood with a "supercharged" sticker on it.... followed by several more all over the car.

No. It wouldn't make you a poser. That's ridiculous. I have a Z28 with an SS spoiler, SS wheels and an Ultra Z hood. Looks SS ish, but it's not. Nothing against original SS's, but I think it looks even meaner than an SS. Besides, an SS is a Z28 on steroids Do you what you want. Like everybody else said though, just don't call or badge it an SS.

Nice! I think I will like the SS hood and RS wing combination. I have started a trend where I live and everyone (5 so far) is getting the SS hood on Z28s and V6s. This may start another.

As long as you don't put the SS badges on it, you won't be a poser. Don't do like the ricers. I actually want to do both the hood and spoiler.

I'm probably going to do a 4" cowl and an RS spoiler, and then some hugger orange/two white stripes to finish up my exterior look. then it's allllll motor, baby

Like others said, as long as you don't swap badges, it's all good.
