Who makes the best Fiberglas hood?

96GTBYYOU · 07-15-2000, 09:43 AM

Well......I dropped an 8' tall 200lb snake cage on the hood of my PERFECT '96 GT. Not quite as perfect anymore needless to say. So I figure I'd like to channel my stupidity into something positive for my 'Stang.
Can anyone recommend the best after market hoods out there? I'm looking at the Cervini's 2" cowl that I see in 5.0. Thanks for helping a 'Stanger that slipped up and DINGED HIS OWN F'N car!(sorry, still po'd @ myself.)

Cervini's hoods are excellent for fit and finish when my car was in the shop another guy had his stang in geting the hood and bumper painted and the hood looked sweet I wanted one but it was going to be awhile because they were behind in the production of the hoods so I settled for a stock cobra hood .you might also try Cincinnati Composits I hear their hoods are good too I like the cobra r w/96 scoops it looks sweet hpoe this helps.

H.O. Fibertrends made the '95 Cobra 'R' hoods for Ford. I had one of their 2 inch hoods on my '89 LX and I presently have one of their 'R' hoods on my '98 Cobra. Problem is I don't know how to get in touch with them.
