Help Looking For Cs6/8 Hood?

[trigga415]

So I've decided on this hood as well and it's unfortunate how uncommon it is. Well after lots of searching, I have found a functional version from various sites. On every site it seems to be the same hood produced by AIT. My issues are that all of the following places have shady reviews (or none at all), extremely harsh restrictions on returns and I'm not even sure of AIT's quality itself. I've looked around at threads on these places but I'm curious about a "hood purchase" experience anyone has had from the following:

Cruizin Concepts Wholesale

Mr. BodyKit

AIT Racing

Anyone have 2 cents on purchasing a hood from one of these guys or on AIT's quality itself?

I can't find that specific hood on this site and I have no experience with any of the sites you linked but I would recommend Cervinis ( http://www.cervinis.com/ford-mustang-05-09-mustang-hoods.html). I've used 2 of there hoods so far and they have perfect fitment and good quality.

I wish! I hear so many great things about Cervinis and I'm buying their rear Stalker spoiler very soon. I just don't go crazy for any of their hoods except the Concept Ram Air. I would only grab that once I was certain I couldn't get a good quality CS6 style.

Chances are those companies just buy the hood from AIT.

You might be able to across a used one someplace, as the CS6/8 and GT-H have this hood.

It looks from the pics. the "extractor vents" are not functional. Or did I miss something?

 

[trigga415]

The CS6/8 and GT-H are not functional hoods, the vents are cosmetic. The hood from AIT is functional however. If I found a reasonably priced authentic Shelby hood (last one I found was at least 200 more), I'd make those vents functional anyway.
