Thanks for your insight
Thanks for your insight
They were manufactured in our (SLP) St. Henri, Quebec, Canada facility and sent over to our LaSalle assembly facility.
SLP made all of the 96-02 Camaro SS hoods and spoilers, along with all Firehawk hoods, '96-97 WS6 Hoods and more.

If a Legitimate owner needs a replacement Hood/Spoiler, are originals still available?

Yes, they're available from either GM or SLP.
