Is my SLP SS hood real?

If it's a '94 then it didn't come from the factory with that hood. However SLP did sell SS hoods or it may have come off of a SS so there is a chance that it is a SLP hood.

Look for the crush initiators built into the lower side of the hood. None of the aftermarket copies have this feature. If you don't know what I'm talking about, post a picture of the bottom side of the hood and I'll point them out.

Thank you for taking the time to post guys.
I just bought the hood about a week ago.
My understanding is it came off a green 96 SS. It was sold and painted the current color, red.
Here are some pics when it was green and now red. BTW; when looking for painters, what questions should I asked to know if they can paint this hood? Is it safe to media blast it? I heard it is made out of SMC???
