By the looks of the quality, I would have to say AAR Quality Fiberglass.

AAR, they seemed to be most everyones favorite here, and they had the extra tall hemi scoop. i'll have to put em on the car to see how they fit. they do look pretty flat compared to some of the other glass i've seen. the hood looks real good!

New parts.  I bought the same XL scoop and will put the jailbars on tomorrow.  i was admiring your pics the other day and couldn't wait to get mine! you did a really great job of cutting yours out for the air cleaners, have any tips or tricks?

When you cut your holes, tape up the outside circumference area with masking tape and use a jig saw. This will protect the gelcoat. I use my dewalt 110 jig. Just like cutting thin plywood.
As for my air cleaners, I shit canned the idea of using the max wedge cleaners. I now have 2 - 10" round, 0.5" raised base x 3 3/4" tall OE style open chrome top air cleaners with K and N's. Going to start my bathtub and hood seal for the carbs in about a week. Going to do the jailbars next and glass in some support rails under the jailbars and scoop flanges this weekend.
I still need to keep my K member shims to get the front carb air cleaner flange below the hood.

Did the scoop come mounted to the hood; or did you do that yourself?

how hard is it to put headlight buckets in those fenders? that stuff looks great.  i'll have to update you on that, i don't want to cut up my original fenders so i need to locate some buckets first. the only problem i can possiby see with the mounting the buckets is these fenders are copied from a 69 dart, the 68 dart has the headlights in a slightly different position. GT, as far as the jail bars they look like some round stainless bar stock just cut to length and threaded on each end. im gonna put the doors back on the car tonite and fit the fenders up to see if they need any work. how did yours fit mopar-addiction?

$1564 for the parts and another $200 to ship to michigan, a little pricey, but i am happy with the quality.

I put on hood, fenders, trunk and bumpers from AAR on my 69. All were a very nice fit. The only problem I had was I think the trunk was very new. I preped it well then sealed it and primed. Painted with PPG 3 coats base 3 coats clear. Rubbed it out and it looked great. Six months later it started to show some patterns of fiberglass. Maybe it was me or maybe it needed a little more time to cure.
