I have heard good things about the quality of Hagan hoods. None of them are an exact fit, and you have to "fit" them to your own particular car.

Thanks Rummrumm.. That's just the input I'm looking for!

Mines a Rootlieb(Rootleib?) - the fit is fine, quality is good plus they will for a price( ) build a hood to your spec ( I have an extra '08 catalog - if you want it then PM me)

I have a Rootlieb hood on my 32. I special ordered it because I needed it to be one inch longer than stock. They produced the hood quickly and the fit was good. I was satisfied with Rootlieb. I have not used a Hagan so I can't offer an opinion there.

Thanks for the input guys! Again, that's just the sort of info I need to help make an informed decision.
