People seem to be satisfied withy the fit and finish of Auto Metal Direct products, and they do make a two inch cowl hood for the earlier and later squares. I wish I could suggest someone that I knew made the parts in this country, but as far as I know, many are made in the Republic of China. I'm sure some are made in China, as well. Even then, I'd still prefer Taiwan over China.
