Default Has anyone bought from Vanacor Products?

I am interested in buying a hood from Vanacor's Corvette, has anyone purchased from them? The questions I have pertain to their quality, in respect to the fit and finish.
Any information would be helpful!
Fred

I ordered the "stinger" hood from them a couple of years ago but returned it because of problems with fit and finish. The style is nice but most likely you will need to do some extra work on it unless they have improved the quality since then.

Thanks for the replies.
I like the looks of the "stinger" style to go with the "tiger shark" front. What hood did you use?
