Where to buy a good quality hood?

Hey dudes, I am looking to buy a new hood for my 04 GT.

Anyone know some places that sell good quality hoods for decent prices in Canada?
The US stuff isn't bad but the shipping is murder.

Try DaSilvas, PSP, Steeda, or The Mustang Shop
Make sure you get a Cervini hood, ther are the best, Quality and finish is AWESOME

Harwood also makes very good quality hoods and are typically a touch more affordable than Cervini.

Guys, found out about this vendor/manufacturer of hoods.

www.hofibertrends.com

They make the Cobra R (2000) for Ford. If you go to the dealership and order the Ford Cobra R hood you are getting one made by these guys.

They do ship to Canada as well.

Just thought I'd share.

Steeda.ca also sales hoods for the '99 to '04 mustangs,they sale the Steeda '95 style "R" cowl hood,and the Steeda "Q400 Louvered" hood which is like the '95 style "R" cowl hood,but with the louvered look,which i have .When i was looking for a cowl hood,i priced out the Cervinis,Harwood,and Steeda's,and Steeda's came to be the most affordable,can't remember off the top of my head now,but with paint,and the cost of the Steeda hood in total was the price of the Cervinis hood alone,not even painted,and the Harwood wasn't far behind either.I know some will say you get what you pay for,well let me tell you,the Steeda hood is in the same league as the Cervinis.110% quality piece,comes gel coated white ready to paint,the underside is finished,and is painted black,and bolts right on WITHOUT any other work minus adjusting the hood hinges on the body to get proper gapping.Same goes for the paint work,no prep work minus the sanding to get it painted.Plus the hood latch plate is a plus as it is a thick plate the covers the surounding latching area,not just where it latches too!

make sure you buy the best quality hood, youll pay more for the hood but save alot of money at the bodyshop and headache

I would only recommend cervinis and steeda hoods
