glasstek.

installed 3 hoods, 68 camaro 5", malibu 4", and a custom cowl for a 69 cutlass and they were basically dead on outta the box. even with paint they all just got scuffed and painted. their shipping methods are A-plus too.

Fuck VFN.. We have bought 3 hoods from them and none of them fit the same. Hell they weren't even made the fuckin same. Totally different. Took me about 3 months to get it from them and then took another two weeks to get mine to fit and its still a mother fucker to get it on the car now. Their customer service can kiss my ass too.. A few weeks ago I had just loaded my car and went to stick the hood on so I could get to the track and the hood would not go on. I snatched it up and threw the son of bitch across the parking lot and then drug it into the shop and threw it again. PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT!


FUCK VFN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glasstek makes a quality product, dont even consider VFN. You will save some money for racing and be very happy with your purchase.
x1000, my buddy did his with vfn and had to do a ton of work to make it look good and it still looks wavy. I have all glasstek and it looks like steel great quality. My other car has a harwood nose and it is terrible quality also

Glasstck promised my hood would arrive a week ago last friday. It was a part of me going with them and not another company. They (Tony) didnt ship it untill that thursday which put it here tuesday (4 days late) even with me going to the terminal to get it and saving one more day. I unbox it and see that its been sprayed with some unknown primer. Why primer a fiberglass part with some junk that may not be compatible with my paint program? I remove all primer and find a few defects but nothing major. The part is a 6 out of 10 at best. I reprimered it with high-build and blocked it out. A few low spots and a little warping where the under-side support structure was glassed in. VFN told me 4-6 weeks, never called back when they said they would then called repeatedly for the next few days. Both companies are below par, but the choices are pretty limited. Hairy Glass is always my first choice if they have what I am looking for.
