Default Superhawk Ebay Hood

Wondering, has anyone ever seen one of these or maybe purchased one? Price seems too low to be quality, but ive been suprised before. Was thinking of getting one. Just wanted to see if anyone had feedback on one.

Search would have found the answer you were looking for tho.
(Even tho the search function isn't all that great & you have to pair up just the right words.)

It's been mentioned here many times, ...., Do NOT do business with that seller.
Many instances of bad feedback here on the site.

Seriously though, go to his eBay feedback and make it to where it shows 200 per page and get to scrolling. Every red dot is a hood transaction. He always reply's that they don't pay. Also, his grammar looks like it would be on par with my 3 year old. I've never gotten scammed by him and even I want to kick his ***. If its screwed up you have to ship it back out of pocket and that alone is almost the cost of the hood and I doubt very seriously anyone has ever gotten a second one. There are a few people that have made theirs look good. Just save your money a bit more, I know for t/a guys the temptation for a super hawk recreation must be hard. Check out VFN, suncoast creations, trufiber, or glasstek.

That figures. I dug further into his feedback, and only found 1 positive and a few dozen negatives. In which the seller always denies fault.

We just get tired of the same questions over and over again. Where if you took a second and did a search you would have found more than enough information for what you were looking for.

I get tired of scrolling through the same person posting back to back when they could've just used the multi-quote button and/or edited their first post.

Yep I bought my sunoco form him a year ago , at the time I did a search on here and there was only like two threads about it and both were positive about him , I so I bought my hood and now have put enough time into it that if I charged myself for my labor that a vfn would have been much cheaper
And its still far from perfect

The only way I would but from him is if I could pick the hood up myself from his shop. I hear people doing that are usually happy with it.

I've considered using the edit and adding quotations afterwards. However, I've always felt that people just watch for new replys and that it would get over looked. Not this thread maybe, but when your in a hot thread where everyone is posting at the same time sometimes its unavoidable

Well I just bought a WS6 style hood from him and the quality is neither good or bad. I will be putting it on in a few days so I will post up my results after that.

I hope it's not to bad. I can deal with not perfect but I will be pissed if it fits like poop. If it does I will sell it and buy a OEM hood then.
