Well it was about an hour and a half drive to forwardair's pickup spot and the hood was saran-wrapped on a crate. I had to wait another hour at the place because they weren't gonna let me take it because the ebay account was under my mom's name. Even though I had valid ID proving I was her son, my mom still had to fax a copy of her drivers license to the place. They finally let me have it and I didn't have time to inspect it cause I asked my buddy to drive his truck out there as a favor. By the time I got all the way back and unwrapped it I noticed the blemishes, but I had had enough of their company (forwardair) and just said forget it. I'm kind of a wimp when it comes to complaining.
But really the blemishes were nothing horrible, and would probably be smoothed over with some quick block sanding. The vertical piece that seperates the nostrils in the scoop was slightly off symmetrically, but for a reproduction I'd say itspretty good.
