I want to know which bolt-on fiberglass Cowl induction hood had the best fit and finish right out of the box. Harwood, Unlimited Products etc... I've heard that on some hoods you have to trim the fiberglass along the edges of the hood before installation and some hoods have slight ripples in them. I'd appreciate any experiences with these hoods before I spend hard earned cash. Thanks

Hey I have a Harwood from Jegs and it is awesome as far as fit and finish. I would buy it again.

I'll have to agree with Miles, Glasstek is the sh*t!! Great finish and flawless fitting.

I've had the Harwood for about 5 yrs with no problems. I did have to trim the edges and I'm not sure if other brands are the same. Other than that it has a good fit and finish.

I have a Daytona hood, i like it i think it looks pretty good on a white car

Don't get a unlimited hood. They are cheap(you get what you pay for). You can tell a difference just buy picking each up. I have own 2 Harwoods, They are a well made hood. very strong

i would have to say glastech is the best. it comes in a wooden frame, so there is no shipping problems

For me HARDWOOD sucked, had to cut some edges,nice quality, but very annoying, i sold the hood a month after i got it.
