Hood - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

justjoshin · 11-26-2014, 12:50 PM

I am wanting to get a new hood for my 2010. Originally I always wanted a MPD1 Z Force hood painted like the photo of the SLP ZL1 car. I also like the COPO and new OEM SS hoods. Just looking for input on what you guys like that best of the 3.

I have the COPO and I love it!

If you decide to go with it (COPO) Make sure you call Jim @ Ohio-Speed awesome guy to work with!

Thanks for the heads up IH8OPEC. Your car looks great and it really gives me a good visual of what it would look like on my car.

Just got my Z-Force hood

Just get the 2014 hood vent and install it in your existing hood... That would be your least expensive option. A lot of people already have done it.

I have thought about that option too.

How about moding your own?

MPD Z-Force and the COPO style look really awesome. The 2014 hood vent is probably a little less expensive route to go.

Hex Vents -- Since that is not there, OEM is awesome looking...

Eric at MPD talked to me all the time about getting a hood. I just didn't want a hood that had no affect either on feeding air to my intake or extracting heat. I ended up doing the 2014 grill insert and glad I did. It was cheaper and I see the heat coming out when stopped and I know it's taking care of relieving the air pressure along the front bumper at speed pushing air through, up and out.

Just not a big fan of the Hex Vents, they remind me of a Mustang too much I guess...

chozn4service · 11-26-2014, 06:33 PM

I had the Hex on my first Camaro and decided not to go the same direction that I once traveled in that area.

chozn4service, your car looks great! Does your hood still feel sturdy after cutting out all the bracing?
