Found a company that has a Custom Fiberglass Hood

[Curtis]

FYI for anyone who is looking for a aftermarket hood...

4 piece complete body but it does not include the hood

So I emailed them for information to see if the hood was a available and it is.

Not cheap though. priced at $632.00 + shipping. Shipping is $150.00 to a business and $200.00 to a residential address. The scoops are open, with pre-installed mesh grille

Yeah I concur... but I did like the hood.

Somebody guinea pig that hood for us!!

I would love to see what it would look like without a Giant Fast and Furious plastic kit ruining the rest of the truck.

I like the rear treatment, but the front looks terrible with the stacked round lights...

Hood looks good.

too bad a mountaineer has a different hood. this would make my custom hood alot easier

If people want to chip in some $$, I'd be more than happy to guinea pig that hood for everyone. But right now a little over $800 shipped is out of my price range.....

It is a nice looking hood too, esp. with functional scoops

Or you could just cut your own hood and stick your own hood scoop or air inlet on there and make it look professional.


I dont think the bodykit looks that bad, i think the color really makes it look alot worse.

Whole thing is FUGLY. If you want to rice out something, get a Honduh!

I'm not that mechanically inclined when it comes to sheet metal, and those generic ones that you mount with 3M tape look cheesy, IMHO, even if you cut the hood to make them functional.

I actually like the look of this hood. I don't think it's too ricey as some people do, it gives it a little bit of a more aggressive look. Imagine the kick ass ram air setup you could have if you connected to one of those scoops.

The rest of the kit, however, blech...

EDIT: Was perusing the website, and noticed they have a lambo door conversion kit for our X's. OMG! Now we can all be ultra ricer!!! Lol...

Also, I wonder if they sell those fender vents too. They look decent in the pics, but I would need to see more to determine if I like them. I think I'd rather have something like the new F-150's have, a little bit more plain than what these are, but there aren't many options....

EDIT V2.0:

On second thought....DO NOT WANT!!! Those are just plain fugly....and it's a whole fiberglass fender, not just vents. I'd rather my fenders stay metal thank you...

Anybody ever see some good ones?
