yeah why do u want the popped hood? i think they look bad. The sleek look of the 03 Z was the best. Only thing better are the rims for the newer models.

I want to see if an 07 hood will fit over a stillen blower. I hate that gay bumper hood you have to run.

Nah, the 2005.5 350Z hoods look way better than the '03.

I was kidding. To my knowledge, there's no such thing as a 2005.5 350Z Regardless, the hood looks the same from 2003 to 2006.


I have a 2007. I think the hood is alright. I think it looks a little more aggressive than the 03-06 hoods from the front, but the non-HR hood looks much better from the side. In some pictures, the 'hump' is not very distinguished - therefore making the hood look very bland. In other pictures and in person, it looks pretty beefy from the front....and kind of awkward from the side


It looks pretty aggressive in this shot, but the rest of the exterior does a good job of complimenting it.

Ok when you have a nice looking kit to match the hood i'll give it it's credit where it's due. But i mean the Hood byitself with nothing complimenting it, would be the only feature to look at from the start inwich im not a fan of is what i was saying.
BTW~i kno there's know 2005.5 haha, and what KIT is that anyway?

4get it i found the kit.

I agree with the 03 comment, my wifes mother has an 05 ppw & both of ours look basicly the same , changing the hood on the new Z's made me want to vomit, looks like someone slapped the front of the hood with a 2X4 .... Hell I dont like any of the Z convertables eather, when they made a ragtop Z, they murdered the flow of the exterior, but hey thats JMO

You can put the 07 hood on if you want, it will fit. But why do that when there are other great hoods that you can mount on your Z? Plus having an 07 hood doesn't mean you have the HR motor. Its kinda like putting an interfooler on. :P
