Thanks for the info Ray, I really appreciate it. From what I'd already
heard and the few comments that I've gotten over email, I believe that AAR
does make a superior fiberglass product and have been seriously considering
purchasing a hood from them. I've seen some of the cuda hoods on trucks
around here and even called my body shop to ask if they had worked with the
products...and every person that I asked about the quality and fit of the ho
ods had nothing but good things to say. At this point the only thing that's
holding me back from picking up the phone is that I haven't been able to see
the finished product on a truck yet, and I think I'll wait until their
building move is over to prevent hassles. Most people have that cowl hood
with the scoop in it, or the reflexxion steel one, so if anyone has the AAR
glass cowl hood (#1017) on their truck can you please send me a picture?
Thanks!!
