Check Corvette Central. They have a mirrored hood cover for the C4, I wonder if there is one for the C3?

I've also been looking for something nicer than the stock insulation, but haven't had any luck. A popular alternative is to just take it all out and paint the underside. I'll probably do that myself this winter, unless I come up with something else before then. Let us know if you come across something. |

Yes, I have seen some that people sand them as smooth as the outside of the car and paint them like the pics above. I think that makes a huge difference and by far the best way to spice it up.

At the car shows, most of the "fancy modded cars" have this done. I wanted to paint the underside of my C4 hood, but there is a lot of hardware on that hood to remove, so I'm just going to go with this pads that velcro into place for shows.
