Never had much luck with the fit and finish of glass hoods (harwood in particular) so Ive went with Goodmark the last 5 or 6 yrs. No complaints so far and no more hood flapping all over the place on the freeway.

Thanks for all the pics guys.
00Stepsyde: I really like that hood, is that a 3" cowl? I'm curious as to the difference in looks between a 2" and 3". I'm sure it isn't much.

Scream: Thanks for the new desktop picture

01Thunder: New job and new girlfriends. Keeps you busy

F8L: What about the fitting was so bad? I've also heard the aftermarket glass hoods fit like ****. The steel Goodmark is the only one I've heard good things about, and according to you guys, it seems to be true.

The problem I always see with fiberglass hoods and aftermarket ground effects is paint matching the rest of the vehicle. This truck's hood & bumper cover's paint does not match the rest of the truck.
The best match is going to be with a steel hood. The Goodmark is steel.

The bumper cover on the Denali is not aftermarket, it's a stock piece. I don't know why the paint doesn't match on the bumper cover, to me it's just the lighting.

You could be right.

My problem with the reflexxion hoods on my truck was that there was a huge gap between the fender and the hood. So bad in fact, you could see into my engine bay and even tell the coolant level. LOL

anybody make the "traditional cowl" like the one on extremes truck...but in a 4"?

2" is way to small, and 3" just looks out of place....i always thought 4" was the ultimate cowl, have one on my 85 camaro, had one on my 97 camaro....need one for my truck..

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Dave
