Nope... I looked at the usual stores online... nothin'

You might have to check Ebay, craigslist, or something similar...

yea, they're kinda pricey....they are out there for like $350.

but you might get lucky to find one for a decent price where slacker said to look. a while back i saw someone with a 2nd gen just wanting to trade back for a stock hood of the same color. if i see any, i'll let you know.

Ebay has them at times but I think they are about 300-350

yeah, i dont understand y they have to be so expensive, lol, dealers and stuff r just greedy, i cant see paying 300 for a hood, unless i had a bunch of extra money, which i dont, lol....yeah, the only bad thing about ebay is the shipping, ive seen hoods on there for like 200, but then its like 125 to ship it....thats the downfall...my friend let me put his cowl hood on my truck one time....and it just completely set it off, changed the look of the truck completely, and i loved it

Pretty sure your paying for the design that someone had to come up with, then mock it, make it, produce it......all that cost money and by the time it gets to the stores, they have to turn a profit....hence $350.00 :D

There was one on CL for about an hour, by the time I got to it someone had picked it up. It was a steel cowl. Gotta be FAST for the good deals.

I talked to my dad today, he can get me one from CrossCanada for 320 plus tax. Brand new, Goodmark, Steel. Cowl, pointed cowl, or pointed cowl w/ ram air. Same exact ones Shane (s10 2.2much) was lookin for opinions on.

Yea, Dad quoted me 320 through CrossCanada yesterday. I told him I'm interested in one, but I got a few other Maintenance things to do first. Front end needs attention first.

Anyone have any pictures of what a 2" cowl would look like on a second gen? I am concidering one in the future. I am thinkin about leavin it black. I think it will look good that way. What about web sites to find one?

I paid $125 for my Cervinis fiberglass 2" cowl hood... it was a few years ago at Carlisile All Truck Nationals... I made a deal for it on Sunday - they are willing to cut prices so they don't have to load the stuff back on the truck.
