paint advice!

ok so my car is a 94 z28 lowered like 1.5 inches on 17x9.5 zr1s and is ppm

it needs a hood and a spoiler and paint!

for paint i got 3 choices.. purple pearl metallic like it is now, sunset orange metallic, or satin black

for hoods, im torn between the harwood or ss. i want an ultra z but that have been impossible to find

and spoilers, i want a lt1 ss spoiler... so i just gotta wait till one of thiose pops up for sale


help me decide which hood and color paint!

Re: paint advice!

I vote ppm for the paint, dont see too many of those around, sunset orange is a nice color but tend to look better on ls1 cars... Im not real big on the harwood hoods but thats just me but then again I'm the guy with a lime green car the ultra z hoods can be found but are up there in price which leaves the ss hood or maybe a cowl hood. Oh and if you can actually find a lt1 ss spoiler dont let me know about cause I'll try and buy it before you can get to it

Re: paint advice!

i found an aftermarket company that had them about a month ago, ill have to find them again, or are you wanting oem? if all else fails ill go for the mecham z29 spoiler, i just DO NOT like those ls1 center posts, im kinda weird like that. lmk if u see an ultra z hood. i wouldnt pay what i paid for my car but id spend more on an ultra z than i would an ss

Re: paint advice!

All of the lt1 ultra z hoods I've seen recently are $700 and up dont know if you'd be willing to spend that much for it but they're out there.

Re: paint advice!

^^^+1 for the cowl hood^^^ man that thing looks fast, and looks like a Dick Harrell ghost stripe on the side.
