Did you get it from a reputable vendor?

There are replicas floating around there that fit like junk.

Excellent example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Fiber...item4154558d8b

^ebay hood wouldn't be numbered, his is numbered... and they're not in production anymore, so i dont see a vendor carrying them, probably just someone who never used it.

Well that is a hell of a find. I agree that is clearly the best hood for a TA, I don't understand why no one else produced it. (I believe there was an issue with SLP? if that is still the case, **** them)

I searched for years and begged Roger every once in a while for years and nothing.

So anyone want to sell me an original superhawk hood

A cheap ebay company stole rogers design and makes shitty replicas. Iv never heard of a problem with slp, I heard roger was simply making more money doing viper hoods. It will take alot more than what i paid for my superhawk hood for me to part with it.

i bought one of those cheap ebay hoods before this and it was the worst thing that i ever did see,the roger hood is one million times the quality,do not buy the ebay hood,when i first called him i asked him to sell me his original roger hood that he used to make the mold from and he almost did,so if anyone wants it call that dick up and give him a offer,and dont let him convince that he builds his hood better,its a lie that i bought in to.when you make a hood mold from a hood,it does not turn out like a hood made from a buck...

I'm not big on the firebird info, but what's the difference between the superhawk and the firehawk hoods?
