Default under hood chrome

Hi this is my third thread tonight; I'm full of questions tonight. There's a company that makes chrome inserts for the C-5 hood to take the place of the felt hood liner. Does anyone know the name of the company? Thanks

I can't say that I have EVER seen such a thing.

Do you mean the entire hood liner is replaced with a chrome liner????

Haven't seen that. A couple of vendors offer a "shinny" insert with the year that installs in the small space at the upper right of the hood liner. Check out Paula's Hoodliners. She does WOW things with hoodliners.

Here ya go. It's American Car Craft. The link is to the page with the chrome hood liner.

http://www.americancarcraft.com/corvetteunderhood.html

I don't think I did it right, but you should be able to cut and paste the URL if not.

That stuff looks ok. I would have to see it first hand though.
BTW, that's funny! MSG and my name's Dave 2!
