IMHO it looks kinda cheesy. Do they mention how the whole things pivots to allow the hood to open?
Something else to think about is the fact the recovery hooks and the "D" rings are welded on rather than bolted. That would concern me as it's harder to calculate the breaking strength, not to mention the angle the lower hooks are attached at and the plate they attached to wouldn't make me feel very confident using them for a recovery. Also if you hit something with one of the hooks (there kinda in the strike zone) you could really comprise the strength, leaving them weaker than intended when you need them the most. Hope that makes sense, just my 0.02c.
