Default experience with ebay ss hoods?

Do a search for hoods4sale (the ebay hood seller) and you'll find that most hate them lol.

Get an oem ss hood in the for sale section. I think I saw one for 450 bucks. They fit pretty good...

I have a eBay hood now and the quality compared to a OEM is total crap! Just bought a OEM last week for $400. Spend the extra money for a OEM trust me! Pm me if you have any questions

Oem or vfn, buddy any money you will save on the hood will cost ya double on paint/body work and will still fit like junk,sunoco or oem ss, cheap will not be cheaper, you will spend just as much as if you got a good quality hood
