I'm pretty sure it's called the "stinger". But they stopped making it a little while back. Check the corvette forums. There's a lot of guys with that hood on there that could probably point you in the right direction.

nasty. I also hate the tigershark nose and rear bumper too though. I like the original setup. I do like the sideskirts on that one though

It's called the Halltech Stinger Hood and was part of the TT system that they sold.

The Hood can be purchased at ACP, in Harrisburg, PA.

A lot of people confuse the older mid 60's style stinger hood and this one. I think that is why they called it the Halltech Stinger.

And, yes you're a postwhore. Glad to see ya got another vette after your last one got wrecked. I'm ajg1915 on the CF.
