Default 2 Questions on SS's

1. Ok what's the best replica SS hood, the one that is closest to OEM?

2. I was looking at Sun Coast Creations and you can order the hood with the airbox kit to. Is this like a OEM SS airbox kit or is the OEM SS airbox exactly like a z28 airbox?

Thanks ya. The reason for this is because i might just buy a z28 instead of a SS, but who knows.

Yeah before i moved to my moms my father bought me a 2002 z28 and i was paying for it, but me and him had alot of problems, physical and mental, so i ran away from him to my moms, then he traded my z28 in, and i already payed a 3000 down payment and about 7 months of car payments, around $2870, yeah it sucks but now i am looking at a 1999 Hugger Orange SS, its a M6 but i really want a A4, also theres another hugger orange ss A4 but it has 60,000 miles, when do this cars typically start having problems (at what mileage)?

sorry for the sloppy grammer, im really tired.

If I bought a Z28, I wouldn't try to make it look like an SS, I'd want it to look more unique. SLP makes the Ultra Z hood which is REALLY nice looking, very aggressive and provides a direct air flow into the intake.

Yeah, the ultra z hood is ugly IMO. I used to love it but nowsdays i hate it. I jsut ove the OEM SS look, but hwo knows when this vfn ss hood comes around i might take a look at it. If its anything like the vfn ws-6 hood then IM GETTING IT! Hopefully it follows the curves of the car.

But back to my questions please, any answers?

Thanks for your response.

That's cool. I am going to get my car sometime this week, and i already got some of my mods at my house, and some more on the way. I can't wait, because my best friend has a 95 Trans Am, he is getting the conversion kit for it, so he is going to have his black ta with silver accents and silver stripes, then i am going to have m black Z28 with my SS conversion, with Silver accents and the ss scoop silver, Pretty soon when i get my sign business started up, i am going to start working on making camaro and transam decals and etc. I like alot of the work at 3rdgendecals.com, that's what I am going to do. I will have pics up as soon as I get my car with my exhuast (going to be polished) done to.

Thanks
