Default Moores hoods for our trucks are officially out

Hello Ken,

http://www.fiberglass-hoods.com/dodg...005-2007.shtml

Thank you for the reply, I am glad you had some additional questions and will like to answer them.

The hood struts on the new Dakota pose no problems, our hood is sturdy and built the same as the 2nd Gen SRT hood we offer..........that hood has powerful springs ( not struts ) and everything works fine, the stock 05-07 hood is pretty weak and lighter than the earlier generation hood.

Price will be the same as our other SRT hood, $595.00 and Heat Extractors will be available, we have experienced big price increases in raw materials this year but intend to hopefully maintain the same price for our products.

Our test truck was equipped with an Airaid cold air system, which had the filter behind the passenger headlight, consequently that is where the air exit hole will be on the underside of the hood, we will also offer a "Straight through" opening if the customer desires where the air enters the opening at the front of the hood, continues through the hood and exits at the end of the "Tunnel".

I hope this was of help to you and other forum members, please feel free to fire off others if needed.

You don't have any posts in this thread besides this one, deleted or otherwise. Maybe it didn't post.

wtf..my original comment was yea, it's definitely not the best, but at least it's a cheaper aftermarket hood...we need more people making cheaper aftermarket stuff for us, hopefully the others will follow and drop theirs

I think it would look good painted to match. What decal options are they talking about?
