Oklahoma Ram Club - View Single Post - Next project

Normally I like to wait until a project is at least underway until I start talking about it, but this one won't happen until next year and I need recommendations on a shop that can do it.

I want to do something with the hood and don't really like anything out there. I could see spending the kind of money companies ask for them if I was absolutely in love with a hood, but most of them are gaudy and fiberglass at that.

What I want to do is find a shop that will take my hood and increase the height of the cowl. I don't want a bunch of fiberglass, so they will have to weld the section in. I have a guy who can paint and do the filler work, but I don't trust his welding skills for this. Obviously it is going to have to be a solid job since the hood moves so often and sometimes (not by me) gets shut hard.

Anyone know of a shop in central OK that can pull it off?
