Murderisthegame ... It wasn't cheap though, about $950 plus $150 shipping because it came via freight carrier. On top of that about $150 for paint, so we're looking at a total of around $1250 give or take some....
Don't know if it's the same maker, however, the same (style) hood is available on ebaY® for $429 (OBO) + $150 shipping.

Lemme know how it fits, might look as good as the ricers I see around here with huge gaps between the body and hood! Def what you get with half priced eBay accessories, I know because my buddy bought a "roush" body kit for his mustang... def doesn't look right, either that or had the wrong guy install it. I'd be iffy, but seriously I'm curious about that if its good...

Both on ebay are fiberglass as well and look like came from same mold.. Studied the pictures pretty closely...Never know.. Just because it is ebay doesn't mean it isn't same quality.. both sellers have a bunch of feedback all positive.. if these had issues or if the other hoods they sold did i am sure there would be at least a few negatives.. Sorry to the OP. I am sure it stings a little seeing one for half the price but what's done is done.. Looks great and we can't wait to see the finished product..

Naaaaw. I've been eyeballing 'em for a year now.

You will notice that the ebaY® listing(s) have the same photo set(s) as the Suncoast Creations web site.

Oh well it is what it is, haha now y'all don't go putting the same hood on now cause it's cheaper! JK I don't care each truck is it's own whether it has the same components or not, I'm just thrilled someone was actually able to find an inexpensive match for those of you who are actually wanting one! Like I said in the first picture I will have pics Friday for those of you considering or just curious of the styling... If one of you Ebayers finds some deals on CAI and Tuner options lemme know 'cause I'm definitely looking to get the most out of this hood and that sweet 5.4!

I wonder if Suncoast sells these out to other distributors who sell them under different names..I checked the bay listings under item specifics and the only thing they have in common is part number FD09F15VTFHD.. doesn't match anything on suncoast website.. but if suncoast designed these then they should be patented so either these other places are ripping them off or suncoast is selling to them and these places are not marking them up super crazy
