Default Seibon CF hood quality?

Has anyone bought one of these? They are selling at a few shops and on ebay. They have one that is the MCM design. Just want to know if they look good and are not wavy. thanks

They are big in the import work.... I had one on my 350z fit well but needed hood pins. No fault of the hood but for safty they say to run them.
Wasn't wavy and lasted pretty well after 5-6 years in the sun

Does anyone own one of the Seibon TM-style carbon fiber hoods?

If so please show us pictures from all angles as well as the underside.



Thanks!
