I have seen pics of this done and it appears it’s always a fiberglass hood.

thanks for the indo. Thats good to know, Ive always wondered that about the insert, but never have had a Camaro with a stinger hood but its been in the back of my head if I ever go another 67 to stick one on it over the SS hood or a Cowl.

Glad you brought it up, I think that’s a cool mod for this style of hood.



Most of the front clip is back home with all the badges installed. These pics don’t do justice, this stuff looks so good! I do have a slightly crooked S on the right fender. Hard to see in the pictures but the Chevrolet script on the header needs to be bent a little to follow the contour of the panel. Both will be easy fixes later, Perks Customs continues doing an excellent job.

Could you use a micro file and elongate the holes slightly to tilt the letter in the correct orientation ? I've done this with some of my "tweaks", as long as the emblem still covers the hole.
