I dont know how else I could put it. They are IDENTICAL to the Ford pieces.... well one exception. On the inner lip of the OEM finder there is a stamp in the steel. The new ones didnt have it and I cant even remember what the stamp said but I remember going over them and trying to find a difference and could not. Although it required less shims to install as well so I guess they fit better.

As for the ram air hood, it was functional and thats why I got it. I hate fake scoops on cars. When I had my Terminator I was always so tempted to drill holes under the side scoops and make brake vents. But Cervinis makes the box cover for the ram air and includes a K&N filter but you need the stock air box lower half.

PS: Good luck on the fender skirts. You can see the orange car dont have them cause I could never find them anywhere.

looks fine to me. The body shop decided that it would be best that they handle the ordering of the bumper cap, fender, hood and header panel because if they get a bad part they can easily and quickly return it. If I buy these parts and have to return them it will be an issue. They will use aftermarket unless they find something better at junkyard but they said a car this old usually the body part has something wrong with it.

Thank you this is very useful info since it is from the same company LMR. Does the ram air hood really work or is it for show?
You replacement hood looks like the real factory hood and so does the fender. Both items just as strong as factory? Not thinner or lighter? I will also need to get the bumper cap and the guy at LMR told me they use the bumper camp mold from ford. The company that makes the fenders is Fender Bender Inc.

The driver side fender apron is discontinued and no one sells it so it's a junkyard piece.
I may also need to get a new radiator support with a new header panel that goes behind the headlights. Unless the radiator support can be bent back into shape instead.

both hoods look fine the factory replacement and especially the Cervani hood with the slits in it.
