Rubber looks grey from age. But it is not deformed or damaged in any way. Item has been used with signs of cosmetic use - it may have some scratching from normal use, rubber might be faded and folding seams might have signs of use. But it is not damaged in any way (see pics). This lens hood is fully operational and functions as intended.  I would rate it a 7, on a scale from 1 to 10. 

Please make sure that you have lens with 58mm rim. It is a screw in type hood.
