My bet is that the molded hood insulation is made by one company, and sold to vendors like Camaro Central, NPD, Ricks, etc. 
Shipping would be crazy expensive.

The molded insulation is from a single vendor as far as I know.
The freight was the same cost as the product last time I bought one.

I think this is the company making the molded insulation, and you have to go through a vendor.  If you ask a Camaro vendor if they use a certain vendor for an item, they will normally tell you if the case. I had a vendor bring mine to spring Carlisle on their truck, to avoid the high shipping cost.  It was a little thick where the clips go through, so we had to remove a bit of material from the backside around those holes.
