Is it turbocharged, lol? What year is the car...that color combo sounds like an '86 GXL, but there was a bronze TII back in '87 though too... need more info...

arent all turbo II hoods alum? Im thinking he has a base hood with no scoop because its steel. And no scoop = no intercooler (hopefully https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...)

No, ive seen steel TII hoods. I think its from S5s.

I've heard of reproduction T2 hoods that are steel. I think all the originals were aluminum.

thats what i was thinking though

Not true... in '87 the T2 had both steel and AL.... I've had two friends, both w/ white '87 T2s that had steel hoods. T2s had both....
