USbody.com--->Tech Hoods?

Has anyone ever bought anything from these people? I really like the look of their 2" Indy Cowl hood. Their website is http://www.usbody.com/Pages_Cars/82-Firebird.htm

Any info is appreciated,
Tony

I have the 2" indy cowl hood . The tech hood is the reinforced hood that is suited for everyday driving. The Hood style is nice but I had to do some work for it to fit right. Fiberglass is by no means perfect. Had to raise the front fenders with 1/8" shims and raise the nose up to properly fit. You might have to readjust the popup lights. Trimming is definately required all around the edges. I'm still in the middle of painting the car myself so I'll let you know the final result in a bit.
