They're make of 304 stainless so they will bend relatively easily to fit the contour of the hood as compared to the original pot metal ones that break when bent.

He has made a couple of scripts out of aluminum that he sells for a good price. Perhaps he could be talked into doing some Henry J scripts if he got a few orders. The stuff that he is reproducing are in aluminum and look very nice.
