Default Which aftermarket hood manufacturer is best

I see a large range in price difference for aftermarket fiberglass/composite/injected plastic hood manufacturers. What brand would be the highest quality. Which brand would be the cheapest in price and what type of hood would be the most durable. I know that injected plastic is kinda flimsy, and fiberglass has a reputation to warp and not fit right. Also, from a general consensus what would you say is the best hood to buy taking into consideration price, durability, and material.

I have been doing a search on the same thing, and the most recommended is the AmericanSportsCarDesign Hood's. Check the sponsers------>

IMHO besides OEM ASCD is by far the best in fit, finish, and overall quality. The hoods are direct molds from ASCD's 98 SS. For pics of the ASCD SS hood see my site www.01pewterz28.cz28.com
