Angry ABC Exclusive-good or bad quality?

I'm planning a re-paint (two color titanium on bottom with black on top seperated by a small graphic) and wanted to do some body mods-cobra body kit and 1 1/2 in. cowl hood. Anyone bought from ABC Exclusive? I've never heard good or bad things about the quality of their products. Thanks.

I just bought a hood from ABC and the quality is great. The only thing that I don't like about it is that it is thick and the sides stick up about a 1/8th inch from the fenders, but it is not that bad and I am happy with the quality.

I may even be able to adjust that out but have not tried yet.

I think Cobra Auto Designs and Cincinnati Composits are the same company, I could be wrong. Most people have had nothing but problems with their hoods unless they picked it out themselves. Stangnet has a section for product review,
http://reviews.stangnet.com/review.cgi?ID=225

Everyone that reviewed the hoods gave it a very poor rating along with impossible customer service unless they picke the hood. Again, I'm not positive they are the same company though.

Don't buy from them; the customer service sucks there.

I almost bought from them to try and see if they had improved the quality of there hoods but they pissed me off and I bought from ABC and I am glad I did.
