[QUOTE="04DeadShort, post: 16688568, member: 70813"] Yes, for over $700 I'm pretty disappointed in it. This is the 2nd HO 95R hood I've installed. The first was for a 96GT back in 2001. That one was prepped and painted easily and fit perfect with minimal issues. This one had a really rough gel coat finish and fitment was horrible. The mounting holes were off center so we had to modify my hood hinges to work and get alignment right with the fenders. The R hood wouldn't clear my CC plates that have been on my car for 10+ years, we had to modify the hell out of them. This was all before I even started on the MRT struts. But there isn't a finger to point there. I knew what I was getting into because MRT says on their website the struts are NOT designed for aftermarket hoods. But I had the struts laying around the shop from the original hood and set out to see if I could get them to work. [/QUOTE]
