If anyone is still looken at this post here is the email i got back from the seller
"Based on the picture you sent, I would have to say that any hood you get
from VIS is going to have small imperfections in them. I have yet to see one
of their hoods that did not. You could get another one but chances are it
too would be similar or perhaps even a touch worse. Your hood is typical of
what VIS manufactures."
