+1 on Cervini, I have purchased three hoods from them and everyone of them fit perfect. Also, while you are at it, you may need to change the hinges on the hood too. My hood on my 91 sits up about 1/2" higher than the fender on both sides by the windshield. This is because the hinges need replacement. LMR sells polished stainless steel hinges for less than stock ones.....good luck and let us know how it goes....

The Cervini's fit nice but they're heavy compared to the HO Fibertrends which I've heard are also very nice quality and fit.
