It's still worth it, but if you want quality, I'd recommend getting Eric's MPD-1 cowl hood. For quality, it would blow VFN's out of the water and for not that much more $$$ either. I almost got it a long time ago but... well, I kind f*cked up and made a fool of myself on that whole ordeal and ended up getting the VFN one a couple years later because it was a bit cheaper and I'm also partial to how it slopes towards the back of the cowl and conveys that pro-stock look.

Robert I dont know if you seen my comment in post # 5 on your hood fit in the corner but here it is again

On the underside of the hinge there is some very small rubber snubbers. Take off the rubbber portion and turn the bolt (7mm head) in to lower the hood on that corner (unless this has been tried and maxed out)

And I thank you for the praise. You know if you ever want one of our hoods its yours for the asking. I do appreciate all the great artwork you did for me and would love it if you could do some more. I may be in Florida next week or so to pick up a car, I will give you a call.

Our website will not work with the old internet explorer,You need the newest version or firefox. Maybe thats the problem. There is a link on the bottom of every page of our website to download the firefox browser. Otherwise call me again, do not recall any messages.

Hey Eric, thanks for the heads up! I didn't know that about the hood hinge. I'll give it a shot when I get back home.
