AEV is one of the most popular hoods, but AEV is one of the aftermarket brands that manages their pricing very closely.

It is rare to get AEV products at a discount unless you have direct ties to a distributor. Even their used products hold their value quite well because there is so much demand for them.

The Truck Master's hood has a higher list price but you may be able to find it discounted.

WOW! I didn't think I'd ever see anyone run Morel speakers in a Jeep! Good taste!


On hoods, I second the AEV recommendation. It's also nice in that if you decide to add their snorkle later you simply remove a piece of mesh grill on the side as opposed to cutting the hood. That may or may not be an influencing factor.

yeah, of all the aftermarket hoods, i'd have to say the aev is one of the best looking. but, as mentioned, pricing is pretty firm on them.

I really like the AEV and its functionality, and I have seen one other one out this way with an AEV. I just need to find a place to get one. I have had so many issues with with shipping from Quadratec that I really dont trust them, or the companies they use for shipping. probably more the shipping companies fault..
