I've been collecting the OEM SS pieces since 2005, It took me all that time to find the floormats and the grill insert. The spoiler was actually on sale when SLP was going to discontinue them. Since parting out my car I can honestly say I won't be buying the the same setup engine and suspension wise. I will however not even entertain the lowball tirekicker offers on the OEM stuff, If they can find it elsewhere then good on them.

I have a 93 Z I'm working on now with a ASCD SS hood and it fits nicely.

Thats a fair price for an OEM SS hood from an LT1 car. They seem to be more rare

I paid $400 for my OEM ls1 SS hood

Because they actually are more rare. LT1 SS was only made 2 years, as to the 5 years of the LS1 SS...

Even have the OEM grill insert.
OEM 97 SS Floormats
OEM SS wheels (convertibles came with a smaller rim I have the 17's instead)
OEM LT1 SS spoiler too.
Is all of that stuff brand new, as in never used or installed, and still in the box? I'm just curious. I would love to find a brand new OEM hood for my '94, but my car is not an SS.

i do believe its under 10,000 SS cars in 96 and 97. hell when i had some lady hit my 1st 97 SS SLP made me send them my vin number and proof of ownership for them to send me one... i thought that was odd... but this was also in 2001 ish... and they where very very expensive!! i remember the ins. company tried to get my body shop to use a stock Z28 hood with a stick on loover HAHA!!
