    I like seeing more after market involvement. I hope they can make it affordable. What would a person sell aa original Grabber hood for today?

    I don't about everyone else but in the past couple of years I've seen originals skyrocket up in price, anywhere between $400-800 for really good ones

    Hi Tody:
    Agree ! I want to see the " underside" of the hood with the webbing that stiffens and reinforces the entire
    hood, particularly the "hood HINGE" area, and the latching setup before I purchase. I'am hoping it's like the STOCK hood setup. Dynacorn has a good "rep".

    From the pictures posted on Facebook....and having talked to the one person that now owns one.....no issues on the underside at all. He said the metal overall is thicker than an original hood.

    Having seen the hood in person I would not hesitate to buy one if I needed a hood. There was also a N.O.S. hood laying next to the new hood and the new hood in my opinion is by far the superior hood.

    Nice, but is anyone making the scoops? If not, watch how much original ones will be selling for on eBay.

    Exactly. A new hood is great provided one can fill those two holes.

    I hope Dynacorn now turns their focus to small bumpers.
