I have been reading many post here and would like to know any thoughts on fiberglass hoods trunks and bumpers? I have a 72 in fairly good shape and I like the look of the painted bumpers. I have also looked at a few places online for these parts and wondered if anyone knew witch ones are good/great and bad.
Thanks for your thoughts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Getty Design should be among those you evaluate.


I have Getty front and rear FG lids. The rear is very good and needs almost no work. The front has a couple of small waves on it that can be filled if so desired. The passenger side headlight gap also needs a pinch of work.

They aren't marketed as perfect show car replacements. They are good to run as is on a racecar with no work besides some paint.

You'll need to lose the springs since they'll rip the light panels in half. Get some hood shocks if you don't want to balance it on your head.
