I got mine from Auto Zone. Its from SOFT SEAL and it the exact same stuff that you pay an arm and a leg for on other websites. Theres enough in one package to do TWO hoods!
You can split the cost with a buddy. I think it was $12 a package. It been a long time since I purchased it.
You will find out that its better to mount the seal on the UNDERSIDE of the hood rather than on the lip below the hood. When you raise the hood, you wont see it and it wont collect dirt in the lip of the seal as bad.
