Id go with the Ultra Z for a Z28, i think thats the best looking/working hood you can buy for a camaro. And the look is so aggressive. IMO

That's the problem, you've got the ss spoiler and ss hood that match and look good, but he doesn't want to get rid of the oem gfx and spoiler, therefore, he needs another kind of hood to match better with them.

6 holes....three in each quarter panel. I have the same stock gfx kit and I went with an SS hood. I'm not trying to be an SS poser (not saying you are either) so I have no need for the SS spoiler. Plus, that means filling and painting the quarters which is a PITA. I actually like the factory "Sport Appearance Package" now. I hated it when I first bought my car

For some reason, I think that UltraZ hoods look especially good on silver cars so I'd go with that.

lol, the Ultra Z hood is the best hood on the market IMO, that and the sunoco which would look good with your set up as well. I still say Ultra Z hood owns all. I mean you get performance and looks all in one. RAM AIR BABY!!!
