3" cowl

lilspanky9119 · October 26th, 2010, 02:34 PM

Hey guys, I've been checking out hoods for the near future, was going to go with a cowl from champion fiberglass but I might end up going with extreme dimension, the duraflex hoods, are they as good as any other fiberglass hood? They are said to be made up of fiberglass and plastic, which means more durable but are they as light? Im looking for a light weight hood, thats my main goal.

Fiberglass hoods are really light. Should save you like 10-20 lbs up front
