KC HEMI · #1 07-16-2006, 04:16 PM

hello everyone. im a new member of this forum and i have done a lot of reading but this is my first post. i just bought my rt 2 weeks ago and im in love. i bought the car used with 3000 miles on it. it had the sun roof leather stering wheel controls, everthing but the nav. and i bought it for 25,800 from the dealer. was that a good deal? anyway i have been looking around for a ram air hood for a while. i found this one but it says its a fiberglass hood. whats the down side of fiberglass than that of the "iso resin" (i think thats what its called). http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/RAM-A...QQcmdZViewItemhttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/RAM-AIR-FIBERGLASS-HOOD-05-06-DODGE-CHARGER_W0QQitemZ180006273623QQihZ008QQcategoryZ33 646QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

That ram air hood is sick!!! I want one.

yeah i want it to but it scares me that its so much cheaper than the other ones i have seen. with shipping its $550 or so. and to have it painted i guess your looking around a total of $750 to $800.

Hopefully it's not damaged...Don't worry I won't Bid against you.

Welcome KC Hemi, I guess your from Kansas.

Anyhew, nothing wrong w/fiberglass hoods in my book. I've got one, check out the pics.

Your right on the price once you fit and paint it will get up to 800 on the upper side.

That would be sweet with just 4 hood pins holding it down!! The old school way from back in the day!! You think that could be done??

Yea, hood pins would be the icing on the hood cake! That would take it back a few years, in style, way to cool.

I bet the two front could be attached to the top radiator brace, but not sure about the other two... need to go look at the engine compartment and ponder it. Hum......

Just went out and looked. Two front would be a piece of cake. Put em next to the hood bumpers. Rears probably not so much. Would look great though!!!
