The Mecham is good looking, but I have heard that it has terrible quality, where as the ws9 I have heard nothing but good things about it......

Yeah it seems to be hit or miss with the Mecham hoods. But I'd give it a shot

I would stay clear of any Mecham product. I bought a hood a bit ago and the layers started to seperate after 3 months. Dennis basically told me to fvck off and that it was my problem. Sh!ty product and customer service.

I love the way the mecham looks but I have heard the same as others about the quality. A few have had good luck but way more have had terrible luck and the customer service seems to be lacking there. I vote ws9 or like gringo says Raptor

i like the mecham better but i hear the quality is absolutly horrible but ive also heard its not to bad and its typical fiberglass work. give the mecham a shot if it sucks send it back.
