Hi. I'd like to know if anyone has replaced their hood with something more, uh, aggresseive looking. Something like what's on the C5-R might be nice. I have a MY Z06 on order and while I'm waiting impatiently, I thought I might start to accumulate some goodies.

So if any of you guys have had a good experience with one and any pics, I'd appreciate your input. If you've had a bad experience I guess I'd like to hear that too.

Oh, and has anyone matched Millenium Yellow with any success?

mallett has some nice looking things that are all carbon fiber and save like 15lbs. they have a stock replacement, and a high-rise kinda hood.

Check weights of all after market hoods--RK's hood weights 35lbs more than stock.

A fellow club member just put the RK Sport Stinger hood on his '03 MY Z06 (MY with Black center stripe) and the color match was REAL close.......(not perfect, but very good)!!

Just make sure whoever does the paint is good at color matching from collision repair or custom work experience, and you shouldn't have a problem.

There are hoods that resemble the c5r style, but you will not be able to put a true c5r hood on your car.

I have picxs of new install of blk simulated c5r hood. Looks extremely sharp ! Most widely held remark is bitching!
