JUNK! and the only thing worse than their hoods is their customer service. Take a look at their feedback on ebay 99% of the stuff the sell is coins. If they only sold their shitty *** hoods and not the coins they would only have a 20% positive feedback rating.
COME ON NOW! With the username HOODS4SALE, and hoods are only 1% of the things they sell!! OH and they have changed their Ebay user name many many times, everyone catches on that they are selling garbage so they have to change their name to keep selling hoods.

I have one... mine fit perfectly other than having to adjust for the thinkness of the hinges. Finish needed some work, but you get what you pay for. I had no problem due to my enjoyment of doing bodywork. But general consensus is that you take a gamble as to whether you get a "good" one or a warped one.

Here are some pictures from someone who actually bought one...
Let me tell you though when the hood arrived I knew it was going to need some hours spent on sanding the edges, underside and top but for the most part the top was actually in decent shape.
My hood actually fits better than some VFN hoods I have seen but that is due to taking my time to get it all lined up.
DO NOT EXPECT A PERFECT HOOD as with any aftermarket hood it will need some work to make it fit and look great. If you have any other questions please feel free to PM me.
So here are some pictures after some work on the underside/edges and it gives you an idea of the quality of the hood, there was a lot of clumped up resin on the underside that needed to be knocked down.
And here are some installed pics:

Hell no, I have a U.S. Exotics Superhawk, I have just seen everyone on here who posts pictures and can't get their hoods4sale hood to fit right. I've only seen a few people who said that the hood they got from hoods4less was good, not to start any fights, but in my opinion I don't think the people who say they got a good hood have ever seen a quality aftermarket hood, again just my opinion.

I was thinking of getting one of their superhawk style hoods, but I'm a painter and can do bodywork and for 400 to my door sure beats 800 to 1200 for other hoods out there but like I said the body work n paint for me isn't a factor as I'll make it nice. Don't get me wrong sometimes these after market parts are complete junk but I might take the chance if you can't do the work to it though n paint it then it might not be worth it for most.

they are very rough, check out my thread "the ebay superhawk thread you've been waiting for" in the app and detail section, if you want it to be a project like i did, go for it. but if your looking for bolt on or just paint it and go, stay far far away...
