This morning my Viper 2 way is going off. I instantly run out to my driveway with a baseball bat in hand (where the camaro lives) and i find the rear quarter hit in and a saturn speeding away down my street.

According to my insurance they got the hood too ;) ;)

With the money i'm getting back, what hood does everybody recommend for a 94 Z?? Pics and Prices would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

The cowl hood and the traditional SS hood are my two favorites. Check out the various supporting vendors on here, a few of them carry hoods.

I'm still kind of new to the forum. where may I find some of the supporting vendors? Money is kind of tight (for now). I was thinking along the lines of a 2' cowl hood. it's more so for appearance than anything... i don't need a ridiculous cowl.. just something to make it appear more aggressive.

Go to the for sale/ wtb section of the forums... you will see a section for supporting vendors. post up in there what your thinking about getting.

I personally am purchasing the Harwood 2.5 inch cowl hood.

One thing you might want to be careful of, is posting, on a public forum, that you are defrauding your insurance company...just a thought. But, I would definitely go for the Harwood. :thumb:

I personally like the ultra-z hood. I may get it one day when I can actually convince myself to buy something that has no practical purpose.

the ultra z is an amazing hood, BUT its not looking like insurance is going to cover it... only up to a certain amount so money is a bit tight for the moment. I was hoping along the lines of $400 tops..

hell if money wasn't the issue i'd for sure go with the SLP functional ram setup

look at the harwood cowl hoods, they are a bit wider than normal cowls and flow excellently with the LT1 body

If the car was in the driveway, how did the saturn hit it? Also, you should pay the neighborhood kids to sit outside for a week and watch for the saturn, should have at least some front end damage, and get the plates. Although my guess is that they aren't going to be in the neighborhood for a couple weeks unless they're really really dumb, but hey, they do own a saturn =)
