If they woulda had the 3 inch hood when I bought that one ...thats probably what I woulda got . But the regular SS hood , to me , didnt look agressive enough . The 3 inch looks bad as hell

That hood is amazing

I love that hood, with a set of g-fx and the stinger in the middle painted black I dont think a car could look much better

I'd get g-fx, but I don't think they'll look very good on a dark green car.

I would be interested in the 3" SS hood as well. The SS hood from US Body ( www.usbody.com ) is 2.5 " which they claim is 1.35 " taller than the OEM SS hood. Thanks!

AWESOME!!! Does anybody know this company? Quality of their product? I've purchased from another fiberglass hood manufacturer/retailer and their product was very poor. Don't want to repeat that experience. Thanks!

Just got off the phone w/ Suzanne (sp?) at VFN and they are very confident about the quality of their products. Everything is custom-made, very little, if any inventory, so there's no mass production going on. Each order takes approx 4-6 weeks and they suggest the component be allowed to cure for approx 1 month before painting. Scoop comes closed w/ black grill insert. Plan to order the SS bolt-on for my '94 next week. Will post when I receive it as to condition, fitment, etc.
Thanks!

Not really selling. I had a friend who was thinking about selling his car. so I bought this autotrader ad for 5 bucks and it's a run til ya sell.

it's a place holder. but, it's always there if I needed to sell.
