I got my 3" cobra R for 87-93 fox's from HOODS4SALE. Check him out and email him to see if he can get what your looking for if your shaded out by the other guy. Shipping was fairly fast and the hood only needs minimal work on the under side, top side is good, and the fit was great
MKadder and a couple of his buddies also bought hoods from this guy, so he's str8. Good luck

For the 85-86 hoods (seems like we are always left out) try H.O. Fibertrends or try Harwood. They even offer extended cowl hoods for our 4eye. I would just google or yahoo H.O. Fibertrends to get their website.
Just bought a cobra r 2000 hood for my 92 from stylincarbons.com. I haven't received it but MAN o MAN I have a story about this guy.
First off, hes a startup company, basically like the other guys on ebay who are makin glass hoods. I got mine suuuuuper cheap (he threw like 4 or 5 hoods for the 87-93 about 3 weeks ago....got my hood shipped for 293.00--now that he has his online website store, the prices shot up to 259 not including shipping and boxing).
Anyways, quite an interesting month, he contacted me 2 weeks after I sent payment to tell me my check had supposedly bounced. Come to find it some new dumbass teller at his bank swapped my check with some other deadbeat's bounced check, so I spent almost 2 weeks callin' this dude b!tchin him out about how in the hell my check could have possibly bounced. Finally got that cleared up today, so I will repost in a week after I receive the hood to let you know about quality and fitment. The guys name is Mike and hes actually a really nice guy, but man I f#$kin hate it when sh!t gets facked up on a seller's end of the ebay deal and expect you to figure things out. BTW, hood is full finished underliner and functional cowl vents.
2 Months later....still no hood. Apparently I caught this guy right in the middle of some big move to a "bigger shop".
What a freakin' ebay nightmare. Anyways, in the process of getting a refund, and hes claiming once he is setup at his new
place that I can re-purchase the hood for the same price I won it for on ebay. Yaaah--SURE thing.
man, its tempting though...he's pretty cheap! the 2000 Cobra R hood i want is only $219! but his shipping charges are outrageous, so i guess thats where he makes up for it.

I was going to get my cobra r 2000 hood for $293, shipped!!! Apparently, this guy had about a dozen new hoods left over from his "old place" and those are the ones that he put on ebay. Then he told me they oversold, and I happened to be one of the people caught in the whole cluster f^ck. Hell, I wouldn't care waiting for another month for a hood that price, but what made me pull away from this guy was his shady excuses. he was always SUPER slow to respond to emails and phone calls, and each week it was something new:
"oh we are trying to finish our website", "oh your check bounced", "oh we are moving to our new facilities". Plain and simple though, it shouldn't matter if your packing your bags to move to China...as a business when a customer buys something from you, you follow through. This guy just has horrible business ethics, plain and simple.
