Okay, has anyone actually bought this hood? I realize Duraflex does not have the best rep but is this a knock off of a brand name hood? I only ask because it seems pretty functional

Yeah but you don't want huge vents towards the front of the hood. And, I have seen a ton of ill fitting Seibon stuff over the years so just be aware of that. I think I have looked at every freaking vented hood and the ones I like are way too expensive.

wouldn't buy it with someone else's money, I've seen some of their other stuff on some of the cars I competed against last year, you could see where they really had to work to make it fit and the quality of the pieces themselves were awful, very badly done, if you're really wanting a hood I'd go with something more reputable even though it will cost more obviously.

The R Magic is sick looking but those huge vents won't help at speed from what I have read. They will help with cooling in traffic though if you are stopped 
But I wouldn't want to get caught in the rain with one.

the legsport hood looks good on that Series II but it does have a bit of Celica in it...
