Best brand hood?

I'm thinking about making my '87 Z28 like the 'California IROC-Z', and I'm looking at the stock(sport coupe I guess it is) hood, the one without louvers or power blisters. I've heard of some brands sucking bad, not aligning or fitting right. I was wondering, does anyone have any recomendations for a certain brand?

back around october i picked up a cowl hood from cervini's at a swap meet. the had a stand set up there. If you get a hood I would reccomend them. I had no trouble what so ever installing it. the fit was excellent, and there isnt even a gap, like most people get. Its also a very heavy hood, maybe about 10 lbs less than stock, so you dont need to worry about it bowing or flexing under high speeds. I paid 350 for it, which is good cause i didnt have to pay shipping and i didnt have to wat to get it either. I will try to post some pix after i get some. DO NOT GET FROM UNLIMITED PRODUCTS!!!!!! Just from experience, u get what you pay for.
