Looking at a fiberglass hood for my challenger. Are the Unlimited products any good?
How is the service?
Do they ship the parts when you pay for them or is it a 6 month waiting game?
thanks

The company is under ownership/management and has been for a couple of years. The quality is actually pretty good for the pieces we have bought, that being a hood and scoop. Price was very good as well. Just updating some who likely were not aware of the new people there. Here is their website. http://www.up22.com/

Don't know about now but several years ago I bought two pieces of their junk for a 68 Camaro I was restomodding. I just threw them both into the trash. It was almost a joke.

I hear all of you trust me. Just saying it is a new venture now and from what I have seen and heard from those who have used the stuff has been positive.
Bob, they are not far from Jason's shop, maybe if you are in the area might be worth a look see.

Quality of product can be improved in and during the manufacturing process but if they are using the same molds that they have been .... There is no hope for that .... 
Totally on the mark there.
considering the original source of that quote I'd take it with a grain of salt..... he77 alot of salt and a shot of tequila. I'll be ordering my Duster bumper from them.

Thumperdart hooked me up for my new tunnel ram hood and scoop, it looks as good as any of the Fibreglas Trend parts I have bought and used in the past before Fibreglas Trends closed up. It needed a tiny bit of prep before painting, not like they where years ago.
