Yep, I agree, Z28 stripes and SS badges are way too common on camaros

I reckon hockeys, not as many going around and the ones i have seen look awesome, gives off a real muscle theme, like on the cudas, etc...

Yeah I am wrapped in the colour, is a Holden Torana red from the A9X days.
Very pleased in the way the all glass bonnet came up. Has new gel coat and reinforcing tubes inserted underneath to stop future warping.

Colour does look good.... and thats a glass bonnet? I wouldn't have picked it.. mind taking a photo of the reinforcement and how the hinges are bolted up? if you can see them...

Standard hinges but lighter springs, will take a photo and post later. Bonnet is retained at the front by the pins only. Have put some small springs on the pins to lift the bonnet slightly on opening
