Default C-5 Hood Liner

Need help finding a source for a hood liner with the C-5 logo. Have seen them in pictures of Vettes on the Forum, but have only found trunk liners in the vendor's catalogs.

You have a couple of options, you can paint your liner yourself with the Testor's Paint Pens available at hobby stores, you could contact Paula H who is a forum supporting vendor - that airbrushes custom designs on the stock hoodliner. Her works are pieces of art and spectacular!

Or you could contact Carmotorsports that is also a forum vendor. They make an embroidered pad that can be attached to your existing liner, that is also custom to your specifications.

Thanks a lot for the info. Wish I had the talent displayed by those who added their own logo. The reference to the Car Motorsports vendor is appreciated.

Call Rich Van't Hoff at: CarMotorsports (scroll down to see the Underhood Insulators); you can buy a complete Underhood Insulator with the embroidered material already attached or you can buy a kit to do the work yourself (a simple DIY job), much cheaper due to shipping costs.



If you are interested in a trunk liner, Rich can help you with that too and it will match the material used in their Underhood Insulators; the material and the embroidery is phenomenal (pictures do not do them justice) but Paula's custom artwork is phenomenal too can't go wrong either way
