Oh yeah...that's what I'm thinking about initially. I'm gonna get a hood from a salvage yard so i don't have to mees up the one on the truck. I'm planning on painting the thing flat black so I don't care what color the "donor" hood is. I just figured I'd see if anyone on here knew of a place making OEM style replacement hoods from fiberglass. figured that'd be a double pluss if I could get it cheap, save some weight and all.
