61-66 Stinger fiberglass hoods

Has anyone heard anything good or bad about these hoods or the company itself?

Re: 61-66 Stinger fiberglass hoods

Well, I answered my own question when I bought one and promptly returned it - I would suggest staying away from this hood since it had a number of flaws and bulges in it. Hopefully I can save someone on here some grief.

That was my hope... BTW this is the same one that Eckler's sells.

Always expect to do some work on any fiberglass you buy- it is never right and always need some work to fit/ look decent.

Yes your right, I wouldn't trust the quality of their parts since they don't even know what years it fits.
