W25 Hood

I decided to buy a W25 hood for my 70 Cutlass. I don't want to spend the money on Thornton cause my car is not a show car, it's a beater that I put crap load of miles on every year. I can't decide between Glasstek bolt on full fiberglass or OER (Parts Place) Fiber with metal underside.
Any input is appreciated.

I have a glasstek pin on hood for my car. It's ok but, needs some work in the hockey stick area to look right and the hood is narrower in the center area than the leading and trailing edges requiring some extra width to get the edges straight and even. The bolt on hood may be different but, I doubt it.

No matter what brand hood you use, you'll want the lighter hinge springs. I got mine from Glastech.
