Re: Cowl Hood
I bought mine from LMC last Christmas. I really like it. It was shipped well and had a lot of packing to it. Did get a small dent on the inside but I don't have any pictures of it. Good build quality and fit well. I think I only had a slight issue with lining up the back right bolt into the hole but that didn't take long to fix.

Re: Cowl Hood
the fiberglass hood is a half inch higher than the metal hood. I like the metal cowl hood better than the fiberglass due to the durability.
