which hood should I get?
I went to have my car looked at by the insurance dude, becaust I have hail damage on my hood and little on the rest of the car. There saing I am geting a new hood but Iam thinking about geting an aftermarket one. Any sugestions on what yall think would look good on a 3rd gen.

See my site for a bunch of photos organized by the hood manufacturer: Upgrades --> Body --> Hoods.

Cheers,

Get the odula hood type2, and tell me what it's fit and such are like, so I can get one after.

Honestly, the Mazdaspeed, Knightsports, and one I mentioned above all look nice.

I'm in the same boat, I was hit driving in the snow, (not recommended), by a 4x4 jeep who locked up and went out of control on a flat road, so I need a new hood, and have the money. Does any one have an opinion about VIS's mazdaspeed replica? I have seen some of their hoods before, and they look to be of good quality, plus I can get a good price on VIS from the shop I work for. Thanks in advance. Josh

vis fits very nicely from what i have seen, damn near as good as stock. Scoot hood still functions the best though and looks the most aggresive/best.

FC came out before an FD, what's your argument?

IMO Pan-Speed for a FC is the best aftermarket hood that's effective out there.

Go mazdasped or Re-A.

Scoot makes a decent hood, but its ricy.
