The 'net feedback isn't good......

There's a reason they're HALF the price of a reputable manufacturer

roselle park , nj
the hoods fit like crap. they stopped showing up to the swap meet in english town nj for a few years. then they started showing up with an umarked white trailer and did not advertise their company as they sold stuff. . they also go by the name champion hoods on the internet. my dad bout a 2" cowl bolt on hood for his 80 malibu. hood was warped, thicker on one corner,thinner in another. it was so thick on the windsheild edge the wipers got pinned to the cowl and would not move. he ended up cutting it up to take the scoop and bonded to factory steel hood. wasted 240 bucks.

There are a few reputable companies that make fiberglass hoods for your car they just cost more than the Ebay hood.
