Have noticed on line retailers Jegs and Summit are sometimes less expensive than traditional SB parts vendors. Especially when shipping is figured in. Just had a pleasant experience with Summit. Returned an order, they provided a shipping label right away and I received a refund as soon as they got the items back, no fuss, or bother. It was a special-order item on top of that.

^^^^^^^^THIS. @fast 99 is right. Summit sent us a Cowl Hood for G_son Kooper's S10. Came FedEx, didn't open it for 3-4 days and then found a dent in it at the front of the raise. Called Summit, they had another on the way and we got it 2 days later.........Great service...and they told us to keep the old hood!!!!.....Oh and it FIT!!!

AMD gets my vote (since I work there lol). But seriously, they’re great hoods. I’m our QC guy and that’s one I’ve never had an issue with. I’ve put several on/many of my friends have bought them and they’ve all been great.

AMD or Key Parts for sure. Never had an issue with either if those. Might even be the same hood from both, but the fit was always good, made well decent thickness etc....

Just purchased one took over month for them to get it in stock . I didn't want it shipped anymore than necessary. 3hr rd trip and I picked it up . 2 inch cowl from summit, and yes it is an Auto metal direct part . Box was perfect . Asked if I wanted to open it up before I left . Nope , was dent free when I opened at the house .
