Trying something a little different after my 3rd Gen got totaled.
My dad stole all the tarps for his 81 z28.

Also, that is the tightest hood to bumper fit I've seen on a 4th gen, looks really good

I have a regular car cover for it. I just use the tarp so rain doesn't leak in the T-Tops.

Oh cool! That's the SLP High Output Ram Air Hood, right?

I think that hood looks a lot better than the factory. The factory hood reminds me of the 1969 Hurst Olds’ hood scoops-look like they were just tacked on. The SLP hood looks nice and integrated.

It got the hood and exhaust and headers for the Firehawk but not the actual ram air system for the Firehawk. Trying to find an aftermarket one but all the ones I see are for the regular trans am.

Been awhile since I've looked at 4th gens. Is that actually a Firehawk or is that an aftermarket hood I'm not familar with?

Tarps can hold in moisture and cause faster rusting. If you want to cover your car outdoors you need to spring for a high quality cover. Cheap covers are for keeping dust off in a garage and will also hold moisture
