Hoodskinz no, check facebook marketplace for the new OE 8 hole pads, the new heat transfer ones are very good

sharing knowledge with those who care to listen
as I first wrote in post # 16, you have GM 8-pin, blank hood pads spray painted using the stencil that first appeared at the 2016 GS Nat's in Bowling Green. do your homework.

Has anyone bought from Castle performance?

Yes, I bought one from him back in the spring and it's a 8 hole pad not a 9 hole like the factory ones. FYI- the pad fits well, but the lettering just plain sucks if you ask me.

I also have one from him it does fit well looks great, but the lettering will not last as it appears to be some sort of heat applied vinyl one of my letters has started to peel away but it is way better than my original so time will tell it is the only option right now
but inmo little too pricey for how long I think it will last
I think a stencil should be made and use high temp paint would be a lot better but you risk bleeding when using paint on that material

there is another one on eBay by joparts I have heard good things about from another member who actually made one with original gm processing but he said wasn't economical to do and took him like three years or something

maybe 87we410877 will enlighten us or a vendor with his process on the hood liner so highwaystars or kirbans or someone can come out with a quality piece
