Is this a raised cowl hood? Seems like it.

Just found this, allthough the "louvers" are not to my taste at all, it seems like this hood has a raised cowl:

NO way would I ever buy a hood that some clown has watermarked with their company logo / name. That's freaking ugly.

Ok, ok, I realize that the watermark is just the photo, not the actual goods, but that's freaking ridiculous - they've spent so much time trying to make sure nobody can steal their damn photo that you can't really tell how nice the actual product is. That kind of insanity pisses me off to the point that I'm tempted to buy one of their hoods, take a shitload of pictures, and make them available online to anyone EXCEPT that guy.

Grims right in more ways than one. I don't really believe that hood even exists. Look damn well like CGI product mockup to me. I would know I spent 6 years doing industrial design mockup images. The damn branding is WAAAAY too much too, but look at the edges of the hood around the perimeter. They are way too sharp.

That hood has either been way over processed (and if it has been over processed, perhaps to hide it's quality or the flaws in it), or is simply vaporware, as in it doesn't really exist and they want to see if someone will order one and then they will try to make it.

Even the bright RED background is a poor choice. Makes me angry too!
