First of all, hope you are not including Herb with your idiot comment, because he actually did take a badly damaged hood and made something nice out of it, not to mention the effort it took to make it; a surprise for his brother-in-law. The original video on how to do it, may have offended some people because of the way the material was salvaged. However, that being said, Herb would never do something like that. Besides, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and my wife wants one now for her birthday. Thanks a lot Herb....now I'll have to make one!
