Part not found.



I am sure some companies are better than others, and have GOOD fitment, but just about any aftermarket hood you are going to have to adjust to get it to fit right, and there is normally increased gap between the hood and fenders.....not HUGE gaps, but slightly more.

Too bad your can't look at it before you buy it.

I did when I bought mine off the RSM Race Trailer at the J-Body Bash in 2004.

It's CLOSE to perfect, lol.
