Re: Picture of your truck with COWL HOOD???

For those that had fitment issues and those that did not have fitment issues could you post who the hood was manufactured by in the hopes that in the future people could buy from a known good fitting manufacturer.

Just a thought....

Thanks guys.

The color is actually just factory GM Sunset Orange Metallic from the C6 corvette (2005-2006). Definitely a great color, really changes depending on the lighting from a deep copper in low light to a brighter orange in full sun.

Re: Picture of your truck with COWL HOOD???

This hood was on the truck when I bought it so I can't comment on initial fitment issues. It isn't aligned as well as it could be, though most of it looks like it could be adjusted out.

Re: Picture of your truck with COWL HOOD???

Here is a picture of mine just as I got it. It 's a back yard modification on the original hood. Whoever did it used mucho filler to smooth the hood out. Hardly any rust on it though

Re: Picture of your truck with COWL HOOD???

Mine fit pretty well. It is a tri-plus and I was really surprised how well it was all around.
