Rep Power: 0 Don't buy Area 51 they suck. They don't make very good hood. Uh if you want a good fiber hood get Fiber Images. Mantaray Motorsport Racing They make the most durable hoods.

Rep Power: 0 Well go to Fiber Images and there are a couple videos about the durability of those hoods. You won't find anything that durable.

Rep Power: 0 My hood from Area 51 Fabrications was like $350-$400 plus like hour and 1/2 to 2 hours for installation, with the hood pins. It worked out to like $600. I'm definitely happy with it. And other people I know, who also have a hood from Area 51, are happy with theirs.

Rep Power: 0 yeah it will look more shinny to, but what it really does is protects the hood. Just like how your clear coat on your paint portects the paint.
