s10 smooth wiper cowl questions?

Does it sit like the stocker? Main thing is I saw one this weekend that was noticeable. I like the way the stock wiper cowl sits kinda flush and low profile.

What color does it come? black like stock or red like in pics?

Thanks in Advance.

Dude I just ordered one... it fits flush with the hood and arrives unfinished. Some prep work is required. It then has to be painted to match your truck.

Re: s10 smooth wiper cowl questions?

hows the fitment? i have heard fitment usually is so horrible on these things that people end up not using them, not sure what brand that one was and if thats the same or different as the one they sell....just curious cuz if it fits well and just requires paint then ill pick up one for myself

Re: s10 smooth wiper cowl questions?

does the smooth one still let the heat out of the engine bay? i feel like it would trap heat in there

KennyMo. I thought the wiper cowl area all it does it allow outside air in with the a/c system. i do not think it has anything to do with allowing heat out. But I could be wrong. COWL HOOD FTW

I have the same one on my Blazer and like you said, the wiper holes don't quite line up right, rubs when the hood is lifted and I also noticed that the AC isn't as cold as well.... I saw that Street Scene also makes a fiberglass one too, wonder if it fits any better than the ABS one...anyone know? That R.A.W. one looks good to me for my S10.
