Yes, we still make them. Our hood kits were very popular back in the day.

Top 2 hoods imo
-24/7 sr71 freestyle/race
-r&d racing

I think I’m leaning towards wamiltons.

I have a Wamilton hood on my 03. Very nice hood, has a lift tab just like stock and nose piece resembles the stock nose.

I'd go with wamiltons gen iv, I think its called, fit and finish is next level, I installed one last summer. T1 is also very nice. I'd stay away from wcf, personal bad experience with his hood, maybe they are better now a days, idk.

Lines up perfect

The R&D is a great race hood, but its rear is as high as stock. Not the best for surf riding or doing any kind of tricks.

Bet most of you haven't seen one of these before. I believe this is an old r&d race hood from the 90s, it came off of an old Tim judge superstock round nose. I recently painted this for legdragger64.

Side shot? Ralph switching from his 24/7?

Not sure which ski he's gonna set this one on.

If anyone needs a hood, handlepole etc painted send it to me and ill get it done right. Pm me for pricing, very affordable rates. Trying to get a lil side Hussle going to help cover racing expenses etc. Also have direct access to an amazing airbrush artist/pinstriper if you're interested in custom race no. Plates or other designs.

Seen that design, not sure about R&D, RPot maybe? I use to have an old 2003 Hotproducts Catalog that had both in them. Dont have anymore.
Either way, That is a good looking hood.

Yeah I don't know exactly what brand it is, no markings on it. It's on the heavy side, appears to be regular polyester layup fiberglass. Still about 5-7lbs less than stock. Great looking design

You want a hood like Wamiltons, so it does not stick out. As you will not hurt your knees if you land on it.

 

[stitchmann]

Just bought one that has the wamiltons. I like it. Think I’m getting another for my other one.
