Default Where the HECK do you find a Capri glass cowl hood???

Yup so i need a cowl hood for my 86 Capri, and theres just 2 places out there that I see sells them. Anyone know of a place other than Champion fiberglass and maierracing?? Thanks

The tallest one I found was a 3" and i think im going to need a 4" so Id rather just buy a 4" and not waiste money on a 3 if itll not fit...

H.O. Fibertrends makes a 2.5" that is sold through Late Model Restoration (i.e. 50 Resto). Here is the info. Not sure if offer other size cowl hoods:

79-86 HOOD, COWL, 2.5", FIBERGLASS - FOR CAPRI ONLY CAPRI

No, the front is different over the headlights. Its more squared off than a mustang.

I think the 2.5" is the tallest cowl they make. I have a factory RS hood scoop in my garage if you're interested. I'd let it go cheap.
