i got mine from usbodysorce.com
i bought the lightweight hood, was 200bucks cheaper then the hinge hood but didnt matter, i just firberglassed and reinforced my light weight hood to my old hood hinges and it works fine, plus i save weight with the lighther lift off hood and weight getting rid of my hood latch and all, just need hood pins to hold the hood down and thats that, ?

i also got my hood from Us Body (cowl) and i agree do NOT do buisness with them, they suck, thier hoods suck and fit poorly, not to mention an outrageous price, along with a crappy couier who damaged mine, go somewhere else.

Yeah, my hood was damaged also, pissed me right off. It was also warped in some places, I mean, do they check thier hoods before they send them off??? Geezus... NEVER do business with them. GT Auto is the way to go. He posts here, so his stuff is quality. It has to be, or else he can't do business. Same goes with Steve Spohn. You know you have quality stuff when the people who do it are members of the community.

Us body likes to screw ya right where it counts, i mean you get this half assed, warped broken, hood which you paid about 500$ + for and not to mention shipping, and you realize it's either going to take 70+ man hours to fix or take it to a reputable body shop who will charge you an arm and a leg for somthing that should have been done right the first time. Or you come to your 2nd option, which is sending it back, but guess what ???? you get to pay to have this peice of crap shipped back to usbody which resides somewhere in the FLORIDA EVERGLADES ! not only to wait 6 months later to get somthing in just as bad of shape, to me this is a very large, steaming, smelly, brown pile of
