Are these hoods any good?

[impulse001]

Before I get a paint job, I wanted to get a hood.. I found these on ebay, I know they are kinda cheap, but are they any good?

This guy has a lot of Fox Body hood's for sale, is it worth getting one of his and saving a bunch of money?

Not too sure yet, right now i'm focusing on the looks of it, fresh paint, cleaing it up, replacing what i need to (like dirty headlights) lol.. Then after all that, start small with exhaust and header, and take it from there..

HOOD4SALE IS GARBAGE! The other company on there in OH. is Championfiberglass, the hoods I got from them needed lots of help. Spend good money on a good hood. It is not the place to skimp.

EDIT: What state are you in?

he told me he was in jersey.

it depends. if you want the hood to fit nice and square, to sit flush all the way around, and for the gaps to be nice. then no, its not worth it. you will pay a body man much more to make the hood fit well then you will to just by a good one.

kanean
cervini's
harwood.

try to stay in those brands.

That guy had a company called Cincinatti Composites. Google it and you will understand. Should have links to corral

Yeah, believe me.. I would love one, but they are really expensive too. I wanted a Mach 1 hood, does anyone know anything about this company?

They have a fiberglass Mach 1.

I have bought from Champion Fiberglass and Cervini's in the past, obviously two different worlds, the CFG hood needed alot of bodywork, low spots and Airpockets everywhere, the Cervini's needed me to remove the old hood and put the cervini's on now if they only came painted but as the saying goes, "You get what you pay for"

 

[impulse001]

Yeah, you're right.. I should just wait and save up..
