aftermarket iroc hood?

I've been looking for an iroc hood for a while now and I'm having no luck. Has anyone had luck with ordering an aftermarket iroc style hood? I'm afraid of fitment and especially afraid of shipping damage. Anyone have experience?

My extensive purchasing experience with Summit has always been a good one. They stand behind what they sell.
A lot of products are drop shipped directly from the manufacture and hoods are one of them. But.....
Summit still stands behind them.
The review below is strange because all they had to do is call Summit to resolve the issue.
Call them and ask what there return policy is on a hood damaged through shipping.
Your going to be hard pressed to find a better company than Summit to deal with.

Yes they are hard to get a hold of. I'm really afraid of shipping a hood. If it comes down to it, I may just have to though.

That's the hood. And yes I've dealt with summit and they are great. If I do go aftermarket, I will order from them.

Re: aftermarket iroc hood?

I got a fiberglass hood shipped from Hawks. Made it to me with no damage. I also got large truck freight parts shipped to me from classic industries, and man do they wrap the dam thing in enough foam and Styrofoam packaging. You could literary drop it off a building and it probably would bounce. Took me an hour to get all that stuff off lol!
