Unless redline has switched vendors, I wouldnt get it from there.
I purchased mine from there and its not the best quality. The clear coat is missing in some spots on the edges, the edges arent rolled, its wavy and the latch assembly isnt the best.
Some members have even had the latch assembly break on them(Ceasar).
Id go woth the GTP hood importfan.com
Or wait for the VIS to be released, whenever that is?
