Default First Gen Aluminum Hood

Has any one used one of the aluminum cowl hoods yet?

Do they fit?

Thinking of buying one but I don't want to have a bunch of money in something that won't fit.

Mark,
Not sure what company supplies this that your asking about. But I have seen pictures of a members car here that is running a complete aluminum front clip but cant remember who. Maybe somebody chime in if they know who that is.
What is the projected cost of the one your inquiry on?

Mark, the thing I hate about aluminum is it is is not PERFECT, it is really hard to get bodywork to hold up on it. And I seem to never find PERFECT parts.

I saw one, very thin material. I would rather go carbon fiber.
