This looks great!
Honestly I'm a little torn on a product like this. I definitely like the idea of a nice clean engine bay, but on the other hand I do also appreciate the clarity of seeing everything going on in there and easy access in case of needing to do some work. That is a dope product though. Appreciate the video, as always (been watching your vids before I got the bronco).

I'm not bothered by what it looks like under the hood.

So, it’s a hood for under your hood?

This is a waste of money and it's just one more thing to remove to gain access to things topside. Is there a practical purpose for this product?
Chris here. I drive a 2-door Velocity Blue 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands with Sasquatch, Lux, a 2.7L V6, and an automatic transmission. It’s fun.

When I don’t want to look at the mess anymore, I close the hood. Makes it easier to drive the truck too, which I hear some people occasionally do.

Unless you do all your own maintenance and repairs I don't think that mounting hardware is going to be around long...dealer techs ain't gonna take kindly to farting around with accessories. I also don't think the additional heat build up is going to do any of the components underneath any good--certainly not going to extend their useful life. Good idea fairy got a bit overzealous with this one...

While you are in the back of the vehicle and during the install it is too dark due to the shadows. Maybe turn the car around and it will be much easier to see.

ditto. this isn't a 1968 Plymouth GTX where you pop the hood open at a car show to show off the Hemi under the hood. The only time my hood is open is if I'm working on something under the hood - and I want to make access as easy as possible, not more difficult by adding MORE stuff on top of everything.

Nice Cover to (Hide) the mess.

I don’t know how it fixes the mess.

I honestly don’t know what I was expecting as a fix other than maybe cleaner wiring harnesses or whatever.

All the same,
Thanks for the optional engine cover footage.

I found the thread title (FIX) a bit misleading personally.

I'd be interested to see if you engine temperatures increase with a metal engine cover, seems like it would just conduct heat. Every OEM that does an engine cover uses insulation and plastic as the main parts of their engine covers.

I would literally have to be able to buy every other accessory I ever wanted, and have money left over, before I would even CONSIDER buying one of these. Could not care less what it looks like under there as long as it giddyups and goes.
