All of those issues can be fixed with some adjustments under the hood.

That is sex!!!...and thank you, now I know what my car will look like with that spoiler! A bit different since mine is the freedom design.

I got the hood for 570 and shipping was like 380 (i know i know....but i didn't have a choice). So the whole deal was less than $1k.

MUCH better after the hood. I didnt like those hoods at all when I first seen them, then my buddy got one on his NBM camaro. I hated it then it grew on me and now I really like it for some reason. Functionality is a plus too.

Damn!! You have one sweet lookin Z!! I think that if you got some CCW sp505's your car would be in the LS1tech calender. Maybe even the cover!! The stock rims on it look sweet, but they would just top it off. You have to put some more updated pics up of your car. I normally dont like body kits or that hood but your car is simply sex with that combo.

Just play around with the bumpstops on the hood.. or if your cool with a body shop have them adjust it for you.

Very nice car. To me its just something about the Ultra Z that gives it a meaner mentality the other hoods simply can't.
