I have a Ford Cobra R hood (true stock replacement). After pricing Cervini's hoods ($459) plus shipping ($100 or more) I just went to my local speed shop and got the Ford Cobra Hood for about the same price. Plus no ugly hood pins (I know this will probably piss someone off). Go to your local speedshop that sells FRRPs products and see what they sell for. You will pleasantly please with the "true stock replacement" hood.

Yes you're correct. I spoke with them and there was something like a 2 month lead time - this was last year. For that type of lead time, I decided to just pay the extra - what $50 bucks. Def. check them out though they do look like some good hoods.

If you are worried about fitment, then you should consider only FRRP, Fibertrend or Cervini.
no pictures yet, but i actually purchased off of www.championfiberglass.com ... got the Cobra RR 4inch Cowl test fitted it, everything seems great just gotta do some adjusting because i dont have the hoodpins for it yet and my passanger fender as to b pulled in a little bit....
$290 + $95 for shipping... good deal and the hood looks AMAZING.... goin for paint in another week or so

i noticed that that last link you posted was located in cincinatti, ohio......this makes me wonder......"cincinnati composits?"...i have heard many a bad thing from them......The only problem i have right now, is that FRRP, Fibertrend or Cervini dont have the kind of hood i want. I'm looking for eaither a saleen style hood or like a 4" cobra r. Fibertrend has the 4" cobra r, however from their pics it looks like they have an unfinished underside liner.

Kaenen hoods are top notch. My brothers 06 GT has one now, and the body shop guy was highly impressed. Fit perfect, and needed no glass work to make it look right. I vote for them!
I have the 2000 Cobra hood from Cervinis. Actually drove to pick it up to, nice bunch of guys they have there, I was running late but they stayed around a little longer to wait for me. I also have an ABC Exclusive front bumper, which honestly, I shouldn't have gotten. I used to work with a guy that had a 94 Cobra and the fitting difference between his an mine were pretty noticable.
Anyway, heres some pics:
