If done properly, you cant really tell the difference once you are done. All the others have things that are off and different than the originals. I have orighinal shaker hoods, I have a Gene Gregory replica and I also have the kits Resto Rick carries as well as Ben Snobars.....and I have compared them all.

FWIW, I know Gene's Shaker grille assys don't pass the "test".... Gene is 40 minutes from me and he has had several health issues over the last 18 months. Yes he is still making stuff and staying busy doing what he can. His grilles are aweful in my opinion, to much casting flash and finish work. I bet I had 8 hours in each grille doing die grinder work to remove casting flash, then filling casting pits before priming. MLR426
