I really like a US Body Hood I've seen and I want to get it but I have searched on US Body and I can't find anyone who has one.
If you have one or heard of the quality of these please let me know.

I dont know anyone that has one, but if you are looking at the Ram Air II hood, GT Auto Accessories (banner at top of page) makes the same hood (costs less than USBody, too, I believe) and I have heard that their quality is good.

I have a US Body hood, and to tell you the truth, the quality is ****.

Its such a peice of garbage, and I would never buy another hood from them ever again. I am not the only person who complained about their quality. Many people I have talked to have had the same problem with them. They are **** company, with **** quality hoods and I woudn't reccomend them to my enemy.

Get a good from Dirks. I hear he is good.
