OER Brand Hoods get mixed reviews.
Most of the complaints I hear about "steel" hoods is not about fitment but damage during shipping.

Make sure Summit or Jegs Performance (another good place to shop on line)understand you will not except a damaged hood.
That means you need to look it over while the driver is still there if you can.

Re: Summit's replacement IROC hood..

Well, I ordered one and got a very considerate Fed Ex driver who called me and told me it had some damage. He texted me this picture and I told him not to bother delivering it. Can't believe they don't even put them in a box!


On a good note I called Summit and they were great. The guy didn't hesitate and replaced my order so another would ship out ASAP. Keeping my fingers crossed this one makes it unscathed. Otherwise I'm gonna say hell with it and try to salvage my stock hood.

I thought about buying a hood from them, then got hesitant when I read the reviews. Ended up buying this for $200 off a guy on Craigslist.
