Champion Fiberglass, and the hoods they make...*Big update. Pictures 3/6/11* July 07, 2010, 10:10:51 PM Are pretty decent. I ordered mine last week, the 3" cowl hood, and it just arrived today. :DI baked it at 140* for 1 Hour as per instructions, and hopefully tomorrow I can get it test-fitted.I asked the owner how it would come out, and he said it wasn't their best mold, but it would definitely work. I would say he's right just by looking at it. The site says a partially finished liner, and it definitely looks acceptable to me.As an aside, he mentioned that they used to be quite popular, but now he only gets 1-2 orders every three months...Will update with fitment and prep as it happens.

Yes, I could have just left it outside, but I happen to have access to an oven that big, so I figured what the hell. And today, 95* feels like it's baking outside. Quote Selected
