Overall he liked it, minus the dip in the middle, he later solid it for a Varis hood.

Good to know. Mann has mentioned that there has been some sagging as well, so maybe I can fab some support in there before I mount it to prevent that from happening. Fitment was reported as solid so, that is good. I am curious to know how effective the venting will be. It looks well placed and subtle enough to do the job yet still look stealthy.

as for Varis....
