boss
steeda hoods are made by a company called boss which also makes the cyberstallion and will be making the cobra r hood soon they are the absolute nicest hoods with a black gel coat reinforced hinges i mean there so reinforced with metal you would never have to worry bout them flyin off without hood pins. www.bossincstyle.com so if you get a cobra r get it there. :toothy10:
