ok guys i am contemplating a new hood, decided on the 00r but have another choice in which i am looking for opinions.

1st choice:http://hofibertrends.com/9904r%20parts%20page.htm of course this one will need painting.

2nd choice:http://www.visracing.com/catalog/pop...e.php?pID=2987

I have heard very good things about H O fibertrends. There fitament is excellent as well as the fiberglass. I would go with them for the price.
