I have 1992 Pontiac Firebird and i want to get a cowl induction hood for the car. Everywhere i look there is only fiberglass and not steel. I know fiberglass is very expensive to painf. If anyone knows of a website that has a steel cowl induction hood, please let me know. I appreciate it.

I am in the same boat as the previous owner added a fiberglass cowl to my hood and the 800lbs of bondo he used cracked. I looked all over and could only find metal ones for third gen camaros not firebirds. I am thinking about getting one of these metal cowls and welding it on

Glad to here its not just me.haha. I thought about welding it on but i really dont wanna do that. I kinda just want the whole hood instead of a seperate part. I guess its an opinion thing. Thanks!

No one offers one so if you want one you have to make it yourself.

A good fiberglass hood is no more expensive to paint than a steel hood so I don't see the problem. Besides, the weight reduction is nice.

Harwood makes a good 2" and vfn makes a good 4.5". Bolt on is better, dont buy anything with a brand name in anyway resembling duraflex.

Thank you! And VFN does make a good fiberglass?

Vfn makes good quality parts yes. I've had their 4.5" hood on my can since 2004. Fit and finish was very good.

do you remember the price to paint the hood?
