No manufacturer warranty? Seriously? Was considering this hood but no way I'm buying it now. A crack in your hood is a pretty serious problem and its sad the company won't back their own hoods

Yes I'll post a picture tomorrow the crack starts from the edge of the vent all the way to the middle of the hood.....

Hmmm.. either a fluke in that hood in particular, or something hit right there on that edge that made it crack.. i've driven my hood upwards of 120-150mph at times and the hood didn't flinch at all.. and mine was even painted... That sucks!
