BABAWHAT? Yes it is a good deal financially, I guess, but the power bulge formula hood is becoming rare and a new one costs $682 and IMHO it just has more character than the GTA hood. But gfx and bumper cost (I assume from a GTA) about $525 not including shipping AND thats a NEW front bumper www.tacreationsusa.com/conversi.htm , throw in the hood $100 and I guess it is a fair trade. But definitely don't give another $100. Whoever needs this hood "knows" how hard it is to find one and you should tell 'em Hey $682 for a new one at Classic Industries.

Good idea Night. I just recently found out that my hood is getting expensive. The GTA hood, the bumper, and the GFX's are all used, and plus I never seen the condition of the hood and gfx's. We only discussed the trade as I was walking out the door.

If I keep the hood, will a gta bumper fit or will I have to do some magic?

The GTA bumper should fit, but you will have to drill new holes in your fender for the ground FX (otherwise teh Formula and GTA Fenders are identical)
