Yup. Fiberglass skin, fiberglass frame. Makes it very easy to crack, so beware!
yeah for sure, that's why i have an extra z24 hood just in case (unpainted of course).. but yea i know if i crack mine it will be next to impossible to find another one.

We did that with mine and my brothers z24 hood. Only we both don't use the hood for the "cowl induction" Cut them to aid in engine bay heat removal.

Also, all those holes in my hood were for weight reduction. I think there were 20 or so 2 inch holes I cut there and 60something 7/8ths sized holes. LOL. With cutting the holes and the underside there I lightened it up by 4 pounds. So now its only 31 instead of 35 (stock Steel hood is 40 pounds. So compared to my stock Sunbird hood I saved 9 lbs)
