due to power buldges, I believe you would have to have your original hood laminated. Can't replace the hood... too flimsy of connections. I know a couple of guys that tried it and the hood cracked after short use.

be alittle capital if you know what I mean,That's why I was looking
at just buying one from whoever.If I made this hood,Do you guys

there made?
