I bought 6 or 7 hoods from VFN, hoods are fairly cheap but shipping isn't. They used to run deals on ls1tech.

I have the extended VFN also and love it! Look on tech for a group purchase and have it shipped to a business, it's a lot cheaper!

i've contemplated going back to a stock hood with hinges on my car. it becomes a pita if you have to remove/install a lift off hood often. i have done it myself plenty of times, but it sucks.
