I personally recomend against either US Body Source or Unlimited as well.
My personal Experience is that my old '73 Dart Sport Hood had the porrest finish I could have ever imagined. That's the part I could take. The bad part was that the understructure was off approximately 1 1/2 inches causing my hinge type glass hood to become a lift off since the original hood hinges and brackets could not possibly be used. It actually overlapped the fender by 1 1/2 inches when bolted to the stock hinge. I have heard of "fit and finish" problems as well for Unlimited, although thier "fit" seems to be better than US Body Source. My "new" Duster has a VFN hood and front and rear bumpers. Comparaitvely speaking they are superior to any glass parts I have seen so far; really top notch. I am unfamiliar with AAR, other than they don't have as large of selection as VFN, Unlimited, or US Body Source. That may have changed though... Dartman |

Do you have the web link of VFN? Do you know if they do trucks? US Body has a hood with challenger r/t scoops for a 72-80 pick -em ups.

I am very satisfied with the fit and finish of the six pack bolt on hood I bought from AAR fiberglass. The hood lines up with the car perfectly, and the mounts for the hood latch and hinges are lined up and secure. All in all, a quality product. I also have a pair of their bumpers and they are of the same fit/finish and quality.
http://www.aarqualityfiberglass.com/ because of the quality of the parts I obtained from them, I highly recommend this company. |

All of the above
All of them make really good parts. Most of the stuff I've seen on racecars over the years fit real well.
I can only tell you to stay away from MAS racing products in St.paul, Mn. The glass parts are junk and do not fit! |

AAR has a very nice product. The fit and finnish is very good. I visited his shop in coco, You wont have to spend alot of time prep the pieces for paint.
