How good are the steel cowl induction hoods...
Title says it all, how good is the fitment and quality of the triplus/goodmark steel cowl induction hoods?

Re: How good are the steel cowl induction hoods...
Are the lmc ones the only ones with the flared up cowl part?

Re: How good are the steel cowl induction hoods...
Do you mean the part by the windshield? If so then I think yes. I was going to go elsewhere but I liked the flared cowl and that's why I bought it from LMC.

Re: How good are the steel cowl induction hoods...
I love my Goodmark one. It's all steel, it has all the braces, and fits just like the original. I'd buy it again and again.

Re: How good are the steel cowl induction hoods...

I had a GOODMARK hood on a 89 silverado, the fit was excellent. They are well made hoods.

Re: How good are the steel cowl induction hoods...
mine fits pretty good there is one spot towards the front where the cut is a tad off but it looks nice...
