Post What's with aftermarket sheet metal?

Just got cowl induction hood for my 98 GMC. I was just like a little kid at Christmas when we opened the box at the bodyshop. Holy crap is this thing ever thin. It must be 24ga or thinner. Both Goodmark and Reflexion's are paper thin(same hood I think). A buddy got some Goodmark SWB boxsides for his 72, and the same thing. Thinner then the factory metal on my new truck. These products do look good, and do fit with no problems, but I'm almost scared to close my hood for fear of bending it. Not like the metal on the old trucks.
