Re: (IAluder95)
Just wondering, are the VIS CF hoods the cheap ones that are just fiberglass wrapped in CF?
I heard companies do that. I want to know what company make genuine CF hoods, not like the ones listed above.

Re: Carbon fiber hood (gabspeed)
if you go with CF.... use hood pins. May look rice but it's better than having the hood slam your windsheild when you're doing 70 down the interstate

[B]My VIS CF hood fit perfect. only thing i had to do was move the latching bracket up 1/4 of an inch so it latched.
