Re: Cheapest cowl hood
over $500 on summit for a harwood, check ebay they are the cheapest. maybe unlimited products or us body source. Also vfn fiberglass and glastek I think make em, not sure about on these trucks but it's options.
good choice BTW, everybody and their entire family has the 2 inch I hate em, sick of seeing them 4 inch, love em.

Re: Cheapest cowl hood
IMO ... I'd be looking more at the steel units. What about Goodmark? They sometimes have a scratch & dent sale ...

Re: Cheapest cowl hood
nothing wrong with a glass one though. I've had a 4 inch harwood show series on the 85 mcss for over 4 years now, no cracks no paint coming off, nothing still sits as flat as it ever did.

Re: Cheapest cowl hood
