its the sonoco hood by VFN, i think he paid a little over 400 for it.

i had to do some niceeee hammering work on his rear fender wells to get those 315 gs-d3's to fit

that hood is the one from the ZL1 427 super camaro, the one with the fender flares and chit on it, looks VERY mean. especially from inside the car. i also could not believe how much lighter it is than stock, when you release the hood from in front of the car, it like flies open without even pulling it up lol

Close! Sunoco (and I know you know that because you said it earlier...haha). ZL1 is a little different though.

OOO *drool* love that hood. I ordered mine a during last years GP but its only 2" cowl....oh how I like the Sunoco Hood. If you attach the secondary safety latch your hood wont be opening like that though.

Call, PM, or email the VFN people. There's a GP thread in the appearance section. I don't know if it's still going on or what though.

And the hood should go to the body shop next weekend so it can get fitted and painted and all that good stuff :o
