$170 is lift off, need to add $100 to use your hinges.
 
Good to know where to get them though, Thanks for the info Carl

It's too bad they only make cowl hoods. I guess they could be modified though. Otherwise, they look pretty nice and the price isn't too bad.

they said they make the lift off ones "made to order" so I assume they might be able to make a custom hood for you as long as you have the money. ;)

RJ (1WLD BRD) did. And 5.8fastcat made one, but its not a typical style cowl, its the body lines raised up.

I've seen the Champion Fiberglass hood in person...looks to be pretty nice. The reinforcements seem to be adequate for a street car. I did not get to check things like thickness though.

The VFN hoods are new to me. Liking the extended hood...that's gotta look killer. But a 5" rise...wow...hope you're tall. ;)

yes it came from them it was a custom built hood for a local limited street car,mime is a pin on hood and it fits well for it to be a race only hood.
