Angry Boa-Fx Hood problem

Has anybody out there bought a ws6 hood for a 93-97 camaro from Boa-FX.com in Texas? I bought one and it was bowed through the middle. It sat about a 1/2" above the fenders in the middle. This also made the corners too high for the front over the lights. I took it back and they gave me another one. This one isn't bowed as much but still the same thing. On the new hood the rear sits too high. We can adjust the hinges a little to fix this. The front will line up with the front nose ok but still the same thing about the corners coming too high on the lfenders above the lights. This company advertises on there web site they've been in business making hoods and other body parts for over 30 years. Is anybody out there having this same problem. If you put on an aftermarket hood, did it fit right the first time and who did you buy from? What brand is the hood. Has anybody been burned by this company before?http://boa-fx.com

My brother bought an SS spoiler from them. It was probably 3/4" higher than the rest of the hatch. He sanded it down for hours and still doesnt line up perfectly. From what it sounds like none of their products are very good. I would suggest to anyone else to buy you're stuff elsewhere

Hey this is Tylers brother. Yeah I tried to get my money back but they wouldnt do it. They had me send pics and all that crap and said they cant see anything wrong with it. Just a bad place to buy fiberglass from. Sorry you got burned bro

You know what the fu---- up thing is about this is that they claim to be a legitimate company that has been building hoods for cars for over 30 years. I swear if I have to do this for the rest of my lif I will warn people on ebay about buying this camaro ws6 hood on every auction they have.

They probably have the worst customer service and the worst fiberglass molds ever!

Never heard of them under this company name anyway. And I really have been in the fiberglass business since 1979 full time.

Re: Boa-Fx Hood problem

rex, Ive looked at your hoods on ebay. I would probably buy one from you if I didn't already sink $440.00 into the piece of crap I already have. I like the price on the SS hood you have.
