Thumbs up Trufiber WS9 hood

Just bolted mine up last night, goes to paint next week. I am very happy with the quality and fitment of this hood. Very cost effective as well. My oem ws6 hood didnt fit this well!!!

It looks really good! But i have to ask, if you have an OEM hood then why did you buy a new one? Does this company offer a firehawk version or where can i view their stuff?

i had bought an 02 nhra t/a and a ws6 hood came along that i bought for it... both have long since been sold
No one repops firehawk hoods to the best of my knowledge, closest you are going to get would be a raptor or superhawk hood which tend to run 4x more than i go my ws9 hood for

US Exotics. But deal with them at your own discretion, you risk losing your money
