Well I can definately respect honesty Wicked! Believe it or not I still don't have the two hoods I ordered from Ebay seller. I paid for both of them on 12/06 and after some shipper delays they were finally sent 12/20/04. The problem is DHL! They have lost my package twice. It has been a nightmare!!!! I have talked to about 1 thousand reps and managers and they promised the package to me many times and it never got here. Then they thought they found my package and finally a week later I got it and it was the wrong CF hood. So they are picking it up today.

To make a long story short I couldn't file a lost claim with DHL because the shipping insurance set by the shipper was not enough to cover what I paid! Finally I got on the net got some company info and called the CFO's office Ian Clough. I got his personal secretary and we exchanged phone calls and e-mails. Well finally some rep from the Office of the President called me today and he said he found my hoods and sent me a picture. Sooo, after all this I might get them by Friday! I pray to God they are not damaged. Story to be continued...

Hope everything works out for you bro, if the hoods come in perfect (which it sounds like some have) then you make out like a bandit! I still have the hood on my car, probably will paint the sections that have messups and be done with it, no biggie. let me know how they came out!
