I loved my Harwood hood. Fitment was perfect. It was a 4 Inch cowl. The price wasnt bad either.

$345 for the lift off. Pins look cool and it would be a real pain to make the new hood fit perfectly on the hinges.

They have cowl hoods and ram air in my opinion the ram air looks way nicer and I like the fact that its not a very common hood.

I wish I knew about that ram air hood before I had my car painted. It looks awesome.

Yeah I want it I'm just worried about getting the paint to match

I rarely post here but Ill say this. Save your money and buy a good hood from Harwood or VFN or Glasstek or someone who doesnt suck.

Cheap glass hoods fit terrible and arent worth the trouble. Plus if you take it to a bodyshop to get it to look decent by the time they make a cheap hood look good you'll have just as much in it as if you bought a good one to begin with.

Believe me Ive given up on my cheap hood at this point.

blown 346 did u by the bolt on hood or the lift off? i dont know the diffrence?? bolt on come with hinges and bolts and everything? lift off just hood?

yeah the ram air looks really nice

a lift off hood is held on by 4 hood pins you just take the whole hood off to work on your car its very easy to work on that way and its alot lighter
the bolt on it like a stock hood uses the hinges and hood latch

I bought the bolt on hood. I didnt use the hood spring as the fiberglass hood isnt heavy enough to have the spring work. I did end up putting in hood pins at the front of the hood and removing the actual latch assembly from the car. It just made it easy if i had to get under the hood quick. Pull two pins and the hood is open.

i like my $230 hood but i havent tried to put it on yet so maybe ill end up hating it

i like my steel goodmark hood.its heavy but it bolted right on and fits perfect.

I'm so happy with my Steel Goodmark. As was just said its heaver but it is most likely the strongest hood out there. Excellent quality. I have blasted this site with photos of it so I'm not going to do it here. If you want to see it just PM me.

what do u guys think?

Ron U.S.M.C.

There add says this hood its "not" functional . You want a cowl that works. It least I would. I would not by any hood with out seeing the bottom first. You may be surprised at what you will find.

so this is my last question do the bolt on hoods come with everything you need to put them on or do u need to put some parts on it??? im guna go with the harwood 3 inch cowl with a fully finished underside just need to know if i will need any parts to put it on that doent already come with the hood???

Ron U.S.M.C.

My Goodmark bolted to the stock hinges using the same stock bolts that were in the stock hood that was being removed. Best to absolutely sure and ask Harwood.
