Well to make a long story short I picked up this hood from Erebuni recently. When I received the hood I didn't look at the bottom of the hood to check for damage I only looked at the top so I signed for it through the trucking company. Once I realized the damage was there and contacted the company they told me it was too late to file the claim and denied it. So now I have a OEM style CF hood with about a foot long crack ( est. I didn't actually measure it ) in the under side of the hood on the fiberglass part.
You can't tell the hood is damaged from the top other than a small stress cracks, one about an inch or so long on the same side from the hood flexing a little bit due to the crack in the fiberglass, once fixed it should stop that. I took some pictures of the hood and the damage to it. The hood does also have some other small imperfections on it such as a flaw in the clear that is about dime size ( also see pictures ).
The hood is still completely usable as-is, but I would recommend fixing the crack in the fiberglass to prevent any future damage.
I'm asking $250 OBO and don't be afraid to make me an offer. Local pickup only.

sucks to hear that it arrived damaged man. i wish i had some $ laying around....id love to put an OEM c/f hood on the drop top
Yea, it happens. It's my fault I didn't look over the hood better before I signed for it though...
Oh well...
I would have went after the shipping company as well. I would still try my hardest to do something about it. It was uppon further inpsection after you got the hood that you noticed the damage.

when you accept a package you have X amount of time to inspect and report any damage. if you dont do it within that time, a delivery company will not honor your claim.
Well I think that was my first problem, I went to Erebuni first, not the shipping company...
But at the same time, I don't think it was the shipping company's fault. I think it was damaged from Erebuni...

that could be a possibility since theyre liquidating everything. i got two kits last august and they were in perfect shape though so who knows?
pm sent........... hopefully sold
Really wishing I had a cav..Good luck with the sale bump
you may want to consider VIS on your next go around. Usually VIS is a step up from Erebuni
yea, as far as i knew erebuni was a decent company...
i'm just unlucky i guess...
