Hmmmmm........who said anyone was pissed? I merely was pointing out again what I said just a few replies earlier. I also have posted recently Roger's phone number and email address for those that wanted it. In fact I'll be seeing Roger soon to do a little work on my hood for me before it gets painted.

we do not have fitment issues with alot of our hoods, what happened was the first few made were a little harder to install so we corrected that and made an entirely new mold. end of story

WS9 hood is definitely the best looking for a TA. I'll probably order one from VFN soon

Well I have to agree with everyone, I met up with Roger earlier today to pick up my WS9 hood and he is a very nice guy and willing to go out of his way to help the customer. The hood is absolutely flawless and he explained how he builds them and how to install and align it in very good detail, offers a lifetime warranty on his products too. I cannot wait to get it put on next weekend then the following it goes in for paint. Another very satisfied customer of Rogers, if anyone was thinking to do business with him do not hesitate you will be very happy with the product. Pics will be up shortly..

Roger is not a sponsor. Again, it is up to you to find his info. We will not post it.

He told me yesterday he is catching up on all his orders, its only him making them and he hand lays it one layer at a time to insure its perfect quality. I first inquired about one like 5 weeks ago also. He doesn't even have any on eBay right now bc he is backed up with so many orders. He did have a SuperHawk hood with him too, the got some big *** nostrilsbut look badass..anyway trust me it is def worth the wait you will not be disappointed when you pick it up.

I hope that's my Superhawk! It's been about a month or so I guess. I think ordering at tax return time was a bad idea! Can't wait for mine, I've seen a few of his hoods in person, including Flamingbird's, and they are awesome.

Hi,

I ordered one at the end of March, finally got it yesterday. Hood looks fantastic. With a friend's help we got it installed. Still have some issues with driver's side fender and it is slightly off at the front but going to try to get that fixed.

As stated above, he is currently behind on building but he does communicate well.

Now I have to find someone to paint it.

Dave....Roger was just here and I asked him about your hood. He said that he's been so busy but should have it done this week or so.

The one he had was for a guy he was meeting right outside of Philly, but the guy never called or showed so I don't know what happened? Don't know how you could not want one of his hoods lol, mine gets painted one week from today, cant friggin wait!

I got mine on the car and it fits like poop. Also has lots of bumps, waves in it. Gonna need alot of prep and fit before paint. I'm confident my body guy can take care of these issues tho and it will look awesome.
