Which one is better and what is the difference between these two? in carbon fiber hoods and parts that is. and doesn't seibon hoods stop the cf finish at the edge and vis continue the cf finish over the edge.

i've had both.

-both fit perfect.
-seibon is lighter
-vis is slightly more... brownish.
-seibon doesn not flex nearly as much as my vis did
-sibon's weave is not 100% perfect, but barely noticable
-vis's weave is slighly better than seibons

 

vis , breaks....

 

ive heard the same thing about vis

herad seibon kicks major ***

 

i "heard" seibon is better. But, then again i have heard many great thing about vis. HHHMMMM...........

 

I don't have much experience with Seibon, but I've seen one of their carbon fiber civic trunks fit like total crap, which is weird considering all the good things I've heard about their company.

I've had a VIS hood though, no blemishes and fit perfectly

 

i can get you a seibon oem carbon fiber hod for $425 picked up brand new wrapped in seibon paper.

their dogshit quality cost me the price of tht junk *** hood and a new windshield and the bodywork to fix the crease in the roof.

 

Dang, anybody elses ViS fly up?

 

looks like seibon has some good remarks. what im saying is if u had a choice would u rather get a vis or seibon. i have a brand new seibon as a gift and was thinking of selling and getting a vis.

 

both are pretty equal .. i just intalled a seibon on my freinds evo and 4door.. fit was nice..

 

seibon also comes packaged waaaaaay better.

the only thing that didnt line up on my seibon hood was the little holes for the rubber strip.

 

try absdynamics i can work there and can offer special pricing for HT members

thank u sir

 

seibon all the way, i HAVE A SEIBON TRUNK N THE QUALITY N FITMENT IS LIKE OEM

 

fiber images is the best CF hood ive ever seen. but i havent seen any of their products around lately. my brothers fiber images hood still looked new and fit PREFECTLY after 4 years of the south Florida sun and heat, after that it was sold for the same price he bought it for

 

I had a VIS carbon fiber hood and hatch on my old EG, fitment was nice, and finish was great (bought both items used) , but from what I heard VIS jacked up their prices, and their customer service sucks, I was talking to a guy that has his own shop and he said he sold 3 VIS hoods and 2 out of the 3 got returned for bad fitment and bad finish and VIS is just slacking in resolving the problems. I just ordered a seibon c/f hood, should have it on by next week

 

i'm getting a seibon lip...i've seen good and bad VIS hoods and heard nothing but good about seibon....although you didn't mention it...i have a fiber images hood....fits ok..but not worth the heavy pricetag.

 

they both suck...there riddle solved.

 

okay imma kee the seibon

 

hey seibon hoods stop the cf finish right at the edge. doesn't vis continue around the edge to the bottom?

I like VIS. It fits really good and looks good, but every VIS hood i have seen looks like looks like **** after maybe a half a yr in the sun.

 

well is it true that vis has cf all the way around the edges and seibon doesnt.
