Sorry I have no suggestions for hoods but I can say you get what you pay for.... on my other car I got a great deal on an aftermarket hood and let me tell you, if I would have known how bad the quality was I would have coughed up the extra money, it had very rough egdes, didnt fit good and one side had a bigger gap than the other and etc. Just my .02 but if you want a nice looking item spend the extra cash to get a good one, you'll be more happy in the end.

any suggestions.

fitment and quality are way more important than price. you'll regret the cheap hood in the long run.

i personally LOVE the style of FOG's hood. but again, you get what you pay for. you can take the risk of it not fitting or lasting by saving some $$$ on ebay. or pay the money up front and not have to worry about any headaches and having the peace of mind that your hood is quality and will last a long time.

yes i agree you deff. pay alot $$ for what you get...but the kicker is. is that you pay all that money and shipping ****s up your hood..then the company says its not their fault, i seen that happen a few times....so when u get the hood your looking for, try to do what ever it takes to upgrade the shipping or get the company your buying from to back the shipping process......

i've ordered 2 hoods and they way the package them... i don't see how it could get damaged short of throwing it off of a roof.
