Default Chrome hood shock covers
Does anyone know if our trans am hood shocks are the same as the C5corvettes? On e-bay they look the same length and diameters? they sell chrome corvette C5 shock covers and wanted them to fit my 1995 TA. Any ideas? I posted in the corvette section but no replys yet.

Those do NOT look to be the same size as an Fbody.
For less money you can just polish your stock ones.

Why not just buy chrome ones? The wife got me a pair of chrome hood struts for my birthday last year!
