Question about the finish: it looks very glossy as if it's already painted. How can that be if this hood is unfinished fiberglass? If someone were to leave the hood unpainted, how does it look compared to factory black cars? How would you clean the hood, and would it be necessary to wax it?

Here is a pic of the color difference on a black car:

The paint seems decent enough on mine. Shines as good as the rest of the car. Unfortunately this is the only photo I have at the moment, which obviously has been touched by Photoshop.

This October will be 2yrs. from initial purchase and I still don't have a hood that fits. Roger is still selling hoods on eBay, but I'm not sure if he is filling the orders. He has cut communications off with me again.

I had an Outlaw hood to start with and he sent me a superhawk with carbon running down the sides where the stripes would go .... So I now have 2 hoods but haven't mounted the superhawk yet
I stay on him but it took forever to get a reply but I did get one

I hate to keep bumping this thread, but I'm hoping it will give people an idea what they will possibly deal with buying from Roger.
Cliffs: Since October 2013 I have a crappy fitting hood and have seen 4 promise dates for a refund go by.
Long version:
I originally let this thread convince me to go with Us exotics over his cheaper competitor.
I originally purchase the hood from him off of eBay in October 2013. I should have backed out of the deal when I figured out he doesn't accept paypal. "Propay" only. I got my hood several months later only to have it warped. After SEVERAL missed dates on my replacement, I told Roger I wanted my refund. He agreed and totally understood my request. Since then, he has missed 4 promise dates on my refund. Every time he contacts me (after I contact him first) it always an excuse. He tells me he hopes to have my refund within the next week after he sells a hood.
Roger, if your reading this or have someone who is......I would like a refund. I bought a hood from you for a good fitment. I didn't buy from you to have a text buddy that tells me about their money issues and running low on resin.

I may try and contact eBay to see what they can do. He has 100% positive feedback for some reason. By the time I got my first hood, the option for giving feedback had expired.

October 2013 was the original purchase date. He has kept a good attitude the entire time, but I've had enough at this point. I've tried calling him before but he will not answer. I've exchanged several text and emails with him. If I text him right now, by Saturday I should have a response with a laundry list of excuses.
Edit: I should add, a couple months went by where the hood sat in my spare bedroom before I tried to install it. I can't hold those against him. It was well within the first year from the initial purchase.

Ouch that's been a long time! I'm surprised he actually replaced stroked383HSR's hood... I'm still waiting on mine and we received our original hoods about the same time. I have been pretty easy on him but this is getting pretty ridiculous, but I can't even imagine waiting 2 years and no resolution. He's been giving me the whole excuses list in his last texts too. I hope roger doesn't just keep blowing us off and expect he won't have to worry about it...

I was just trying to get a replacement until a couple months ago. I got fed up and asked for a refund. I'm starting to think I won't be getting it.
I think the reason he doesn't use paypal is so they can't go back in and retrieve funds.
