I bought it used off of Craigs list. Looks fine until I tried to install it. In order to get the hood to close it must be pushed to the passenger side or it will overlap the front fender. Once it's closed, even with the hood so far forward that the front edge is 1/2" to 3/4" ahead of the fender extensions you can't get it to open because the rear of the hood catches on the cowl.

I want to make sure I don't order the from the same manufacturer again!

I have heard AAR makes good fiberglass pieces. I want to go with their lift off six pack hood.

Most of the race stuff comes oversize(both sides and the rear) so you can fit it to your car, get out the sand paper and grinder and take your time, mine fits tight and looks good that way

You may be able to adjust the driver side fender out a little. My front fender was way off on the driver side. It needed to come out almost 1/4" to get seams to line up correct. My glastek bolt on hood sagged in the middle and caught on the cowl unless it was adjusted up some in the back.
