Asuka's quality is OK. They are still made "overseas" in Vietnam. For the price, I would much rather go with something authentic like C-west, Top Secret, Varis, etc.

IMO Asuka is too over price fr the quality.

from what I understand, the latest hoods from the Asuka V1 mold are not coming out well.

If you can find a used one from a member that can verify fitment, you'll be better off.

It's the best looking hood for the 350z, imo.
