If an item has a crating fee, this usually indicates that it must ship via Truck Freight and can only be shipped to US addresses and select Canadian addresses.
Grade "A" hoods have no rust under the lip, nothing more than a light skim coat of filler found anywhere, no damage in the hinge areas from the hood flying up, no cuts to the under structure, it will line up well with the fenders and no evidence of being pushed in at the tip or dented from being slammed. Please remember to always check your hood after closing it to make sure it is secure and clean and lubricate the latch assembly periodically. Hoods are too large to ship via UPS so we generally ship them via forwardair.com, please check their website as you will be driving to the terminal to pick it up, crating is included in the price, discount applies if you pick it up in person as no crate would be needed.
