fiberglass hood

[sleepychallenger]

Anyone know of a place that has good fiberglass parts? I want to get the R/T hood and possibly a trunk lid (no spoiler)

I used this place for the hood on my Dart.

You may also want to do a little searching on this site, I remember someone else looking for a hood too.

I got a bolt-on shaker hood from Us Body for my Cuda. It fit perfectly and have the right structure on the underside of the hood. It still need some work to make it look really good and remove the fiberglass structure from the underside.

how long did it take them to get it to you?

I didn't get it directly from US body because they wouldn't accept any sort of payment from outside US. I talked to them a couple of times to figure out how to pay for the hood since i can't make money orders here in Denmark and finally I gave up. They wouldn't accept Paypal, credit card or bank transfer so I had 2 options. To send cash in an envolope or a money order.... I bought my hood from a moparts.com member who send it to the same container as my car was shipped in. Good luck! I can recommend their product but not their service. I hope it's better for people living in the states.

I'd avoid these guys unless it is a one of a kind, can't find it anywhere at any cost, unusual car type of part. An aquaintance of mine bought a bumper for an Aspen from them. First they sent a Dart Sport bumper. When he complained they never admitted it was wrong but asked him to send it back and they would replace it. The replacement arrived and it looked like a middle school shop project. It had the correct body lines to it, but the ends were twisted, the gel coat thin in places, all the mold parting lines were clearly visable, and most the edges were ragged. It took him a month of weekends to get it looking decent enough to put on.

I'd rate Showcars as the bottom of the fiberglass world. Next would be MAS. Their finish and fit is fair, but thier mounting consists of sheet metal and drywall screws. Next up the list would be Unlimited. Similar fit as MAS, better mounting ,but needs a fair amount of finishing and they have outragous shipping charges. Never tried any others, but I have heard lots of good things about AAR,  US Body Source, and VFN in regards to fit, finish, and quality. Bad side is most fiberglass stuff is  pay up front and wait for them to make it deal, so they may have long lead times.

I had a hood from MAS on my 69 runner, fit almost perfect and was pretty straight, only complaint was it was flimsy, but was race glass. 

AAR has very nice parts from what I have seen, VFN gets pretty good feedback, they sadvertise at an ls1 board I'm on and people love their stuff.
