Default Hoods

So I need to replace the hood on my Z..

it was repaired incorrectly so it is somewhat the wrong shape across the cowl

I have not ruled out an OEM replacement, but what other hood suggestions do you have.

Don't bother suggesting Carbon Fiber, that is out of my price range..

Depending on the angle, it looks good to me, but there are some angles that make me question it

That is the Prowler M1 lower air dam for the 91-later

I have the Prowler M1 on my 90:

yeah but I don't think it has provisions for lights

it is also suppose to be a 4" rise which is too much for me
