Default Anyone bought a stock TA Vfn fiberglass hood?

I'm looking at ordering the stock flat bolt-on fiberglass hood from Vfn. Website says it weighs 11 lbs. and fits on Trans Am/Firebirds.

Anyone bought this hood from Vfn? Did all the holes line up? Did it fit with no prep work? Did it need a lot of sanding before painting, or was it ready to go? Any big gaps to deal with? Any other problems to look out for?

Thanks, Randy <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
