You just mentioned 2 of the 3 reasons I changed my mind on the hood. (I didn't put a deposit, just signed up as interested) I doubted it would arrive in P.R. undamaged. The ruling body for the tracks I race at require hood pins on a fiberglass or carbon fiber hood and I didn't want to drill holes in it. The last reason was all the photos I saw were taken in such a way it looked like he was hiding something. From what I hear now, the hood is a beautiful thing to behold.
