So what are you trying to say 1faastC10, that my hood sucks??? I'm just kidding, I bought my truck with the hood already there so I never had the chance to pick out my own, lol.
The only thing that I like more about mine is that it has a show quality finish on the underside(not like my truck will ever be in any shows anyways) and not the fiberglass tape showing around the seams like on the advantage ones. BUT if I had picked out my own I would have bought the advantage one because of the price and the style(I dont care that the tape is showing), they also seam to be stronger in the hinge areas too. I have had a bolt rip out of the fiberglass already on mine and had to replace the orrigional bolt with a larger one to get it to hold.
heres an old pic of the underside of my hood, there are two cracks around the right vent in the cowl, and from the looks of them they are not stress related. The PO probably hit it with something
