I recently purchased an SS style hood for my 86 Z28 for $359.00 and $150.00 shipping....I waited 2 weeks for them to get it and then a week for delivery.....what a pain in the a$$. I got the hood from a place called extreme dimensions out of california......I'm not at all impressed. The rear hinge bolt on the drivers side was an inch off and then I had to grind out the holes in the hinge for more adjustment to get it even close to lining up on the car and it still sits high even with the rear bump stops removed. Even after all this I still need to do bondo work on the hood to make it smooth enough for a good coat of paint. Overall I don't recomend buying any fiberglass parts from extreme dimensions and thats after they refunded me $100.00 for my trouble....which took them a week to decide while I waited to see what to do with the hood. The hoods currently in the Bondo stages and I'm gonna use it but it won't be anywhere near correct.

 

Bummer dude, thanks for the warning..

 

Well at least you got $100. I got a cowl hood from Unlimited Products (up22) and after how they boast about thier quality I found it to be the biggest pile o ****e I have ever seen. I would have had to send it back to them, truck freight or course, to get my money back but I would have had to pay for shipping. So I kept it and showed it to others. I figure the sales they lost were worth it to me. They lost a few sales by my advice.

 

whats a good place to get one? like a 2 or 2 1/2 inch raise? im considering it just for looks. But ill prolly end up sticking with the IROC hood. looks so sweet! lol

 

Jegs has a nice 3" fiberglass cowl hood: http://www.jegs.com/p/Harwood/745278/10002/-1/10655

 

Mike, are you sure that you don't like up22?
After an A$$ chewing from mike I went with a Harwood...from jegs and it is amazing, well worth the extra $ . the underside has a show finish, like a black mirror. there was verry little I needed to trim. Harwood is the only way to go.

 

Good man! I will now stop saying some of the bad things I say about you.
If you want fiberglass Harwood is the way to go. If you want steel then Goodmark is pretty good.

 

Which is what the link I posted is

 

Who are you kidding, you'll still say all the bad stuf
Yes the jegs one is awsome, make sure to get the show finish hood.

 

Yeah, You just know me tooo well.
