Default Need recommendations

Looking for a new hood and was looking for suggestions from everyone. Now I've looked at the cervinis hoods and was also looking from other companies but wasn't sure who to trust and not to do business with.

thanks

I bought my Kaenan hood from American Muscle. Shipping was free and it came in 2 days. Hood was flawless.

Cervini, while pricey, does quality work.

just jking. i agree, cervinies is great quality. never heard any complaints from them. one time my friend bought "cervini" 1/4 window scoops and that was a hunk of crap! required alot of prep work. BUT i dont believe it was real, it was a cheap knockoff im sure.

I had heard 1 or 2 complaints of trufiber hoods. But the majority of us are really happy. i would say both are great companies.
