Re: TruFiber
I just bought one recently for my 94 camaro. It's the ss ram air hood.
I was happy with the overall quality of the hood and the weight savings of around 15lbs. It bolted right up but with most aftermarket hoods there is some aligning to do. When I first installed it it really looked misaligned but with some adjustments and alot of patience it looks good now. One note where the hood sits on top of the hinges the material is alot thicker then the OEM hood I had to adjust the front fenders up to level it out. Also remember there will be some body work involved to get the hood looking good before painting.

Re: TruFiber
Inside the engine compartment there are some bolts holding the fender on.
You can use fender shims to close the gaps between the hood and fender or move the fender up or down and then retighten the bolts if needed. Also if you open your doors you will see a fender bolt on top of the hinge plate this is the one I had to loosen in order to move the fender up to level the hood and fender.
