    A SHOWDOWNCUSTOMS.COM fiberglass double skinned hood, scoop is 30" wide and about 3" high, it will cover most all body drops, and looks very aggressive.
    Bolts to your hinges and closes to your factory latch.

    I didn't realize that was you. I've checked out your site a million times. By chance do you have a pic of the hood for an 89-95 from straight on? I'm curius as to the angle of the sides of the cowl. I like how soft "TRUCK ACTION"'s hood looks, but the 89-95 looks harder if you know what I mean.

    Whats the construction? You make the skin and support or is it just a skin on a factory support?

    Thanks!
    -Ryan

    I do know what you mean about the softer lines, but the 84-88 is the only ones to have that scoop.
    I don't have that pic. on this computer; I'll upload that tonight, but check out this link it might answer your other questions.

    that blue truck looks amazing. I seriously thought every cowl hood for a 89-95 was butt ugly until today.

    i think the cowl hood fits the factory lines placed by the factory hoods.

    Are these still on sale?

    Also, 89-95 hoods: How much clearance is added?
    Thanks,
    Alex
