Re: Theres a new hood in the hood..

Well im ashamed to admit, I had a body shop put it on, it just plain kicked my ***...I have done EVERYTHING to my Car myself (with help from a couple of good friends) but I could not get it to fit right for nothing..The front of the car had to be pulled forward...I tried everything I could think of from clubs to pry bars to B.A. Hammers....Best 110 dollars I ever spent...They did a great job, and it opens, and closes sweet..Takes a little getting used to looking over the cowl, but it does draw a lot of attention now...Thanks for looking...BTW, Harwood just ships them in a big cardboard box......Very poor packing...

Re: Theres a new hood in the hood..

It has long been my opinion that hoods and hatches are the hardest things to align on our cars... I think that cowl hoods are the only good looking aftermarket hoods for the camaro. Looks nice! What did it cost you?

Re: Theres a new hood in the hood..

I am sorry about the shipping situation. Our foam in bag machine crapped out on us a couple of months ago and it just took some time to get a new one with all the chemicals lined out. I know it sucked for a while, but we do have it fixed now. Sorry again and I hope you enjoy your new hood.
