I cant remember exactly ~ $200 shipped from the UK? You know me it had to be cheap or I would not have bought it :-)

Way cheaper than a rusty OEM hood.

Chris the proprietor is on Pelican - they apparently stay so busy that they have not been able to get their website up and running

Elombard - very cool - can you share how you handled the latch - is the angled piece along the front edge part of the final design or just for reference / levelling?

I am using rubber "911R" style hold downs. Not a good idea if you park in bad neighborhoods :-)

The aluminum angle is a trick that Dave at TRE shared at one point. The FG bumper "hangs" on it. The angle stays in place. under the bumper. It makes assembly and line up muuuuch easier.
