Any issues with this hood?
Has anyone had any negative issues with this hood? Link is

and the hood is the Louvered Air Extractor Hood down towards the bottom of the page. It looks pretty cool to me, and I have been debating between it and the RK hood.

No experience with either of those hoods, but I like the looks of the ACP one better.
I had a Motor City Mold hood and absolutely loved it.

Well for some reason I am sure you know from the RK website I really like the RK hood
Now about the hood
I had no issues with fitment and my painter even said it went on very nice with minimal adjustments. The top of the hood comes in a nice gray gel coat and in nice overall condition needd very little work. The bottom of the hood will require some finishing to make it look nice. I had mine finished and put the factory hood liner back on when done. I am very very happy with the look, fit and overall features of the product. I had mixed feeling about buying the hood hearing al the horror stories about RK and fitment issues. I called and talked to Sean at Rk before i purchased the hood and asked all the questions and he assured me that yes there was a problem but they had corrected the issues. I bought hood on that famous auction site direct from RKSOPRT for 475.00. It cost me 800.00 to have finished the way you see it now. I am soure you will be very happy with both hoods as I think they both look very nice.
PM me if you have anymore questions
