I will add he makes them just as they were with the scoop added so some filler needs to be done in that area.
The underside is just as the factory ones were, with a ruff look.
I was lucky to get one from a member here when he added a taller hood on his car.
It also is stronger and may not warp but I am not going to use springs just to be safe.....

I have one of the AAR T/A hoods and despite the extra reinforcement built into the hinge area it is warping. Otherwise, it is a nice piece.

I don't think any of the hoods can guarantee no warping. the reinforcement is too far inward and the fender side edges of the hood are simply subject to warping by nature. No way around it.

I guess I"ve got one of the "good" hoods ,....my hood is a Fiberglass trends hood,...very nice accurate repro,....paid about $400 for it 32 years ago,....been on the car since, with springs,.....still haven't seen it bow
