Exclamation 06 hood question

Hey guys, I did a search, but couldn't find anything.

I just have one quick question

did the hood shape/fit change at all from 03-06 on the Z?


I have an 06 and I bent my hood and just bought an 03 hood to replace it and I want to make sure the fitment will still be dead on flush like my 06 hood. Any 06 owners put an older hood on their Z just fine?

The paranoia began when I bought a Seibon TS hood from friend with an 03 and it doesn't fit flush 100%, but my friend with the 03 who I bought it from says it fit flush on his car just fine.

I know the TS hoods have problems with fitment and the common knowledge is that all the OEM hoods are interchangeable and fit fine, but I just want to make sure.


Thanks guys!

03-06 hoods are the same.

thanks jim!

also, the gap with the TS hood is bigger on the driver's side... is this common with the TS hoods?


and is there anything I can do to solve that?

Didn't you buy it used? How did it look on his car?
