looks ok but its not rolled, the better quality are the rolled ones. SO take it back and ask for ur hood. Demand for it! because the vis is alot better then that one for sure

Why didn't you check the link?
The thread is useless without the link. Paid little less than $430

That latch looks weak as hell

Weave looks good, but all hoods have decent weave nowadays. Here is what I look for in a good hood:

—Strong latch
—OEM underside (for gasket and hood prop)
—Finished, clean underside
—Rolled edges

after reading the linked thread, its funny that they claim all those companies have stuff made by the same people, yet they still claimed VIS was too thin..
