Default C5 Stinger Hood - Sting(er) Like A Bee

C5 Stinger Hood - Sting(er) Like A Bee

Here's a trick Stinger hood upgrade for C5 CorvettesUpgrading the hood of your Corvette is a sure-fire way to give it a distinctive look that sets it apart from other Corvettes. There are many different styles of aftermarket hoods available for C4, C5, and C6 Corvettes, and many give the additional clearance needed if you're installing a supercharger or turbo setup; however, you don't need these mods to change your hood-just the desire to give your ride a different look. I always liked the aggressive look of the stinger hood on my big-block '67 427 Corvette, so that's the look I wanted to endow my C5 with. The hood came from Vanacor's Corvette Parts, and to make the installation a bit easier, I obtained hinges and latches from Contemporary Corvette. After fitting the new hood, the car was driven to Ultimate Collision Center where the prep, paint, striping, and re-installation was performed using DuPont Automotive paint products exclusively.inline_mediumwraptextrightHere is the C5 convertible with its standard hood. In fact, this shot was taken in 2004 (for insurance purposes no less) and multiple upgrades have been performed on the car since that time, the last being this trick stinger hood upgrade.27867718/techarticles/corp_1003_c5_stinger_hoodcorp_1003_01+c5_corvette_stinger_hood+.jpgTrue
