hood is metal except for SS's there composite, the front fenders are plastic, doors composite, rear fenders metal, spoiler fiberglass/same as doors, sailpanel composite.

the 98-02 hoods (excluding SS) I can't remember if they are composite or metal.

EDIT: if you are talking about the car in your sig then yes your stock Z-28 hood is steel. A heavy sum bitch...
