Default COWL HOOD! woohoo

My friend originally bought this fiberglass hood for his pewter Z28 for $250. It was already painted red, so I made him an offer for $350, he said I could have it for $300. SWEET. Already painted red, fiberglass cowl hood for $300, cant beat that!
I thought it was a 2.5", but now that its on the car Im thinking its more of a 3". A little high for my taste, but 10x better than the bland Z28 hood.




I'll have fun trying to see over this hehe

To tell you the truth, Im not sure, and I dont think my buddy does either. Fitmet is pretty darned good, but theres more space inbetween the hood and both side fenders/front bumper than there was with the stock hood. Other than that it went on smooth.
