i have a vis one...fits perfect and the weave is mint, but carbon is tough...sometimes you get a good one and sometimes they suck, ive heard alot of good **** about the seibon ones to, my friend put a fiber image one on his 95 civic a couple years ago and it was horrible........had a wierd form and dident line up well. just make sure you get something where they wrap the carbon around the edges.....vis/seibon fiberimages dident do that on the hood i saw, mayby now there different



sorry for the small pics, i know you cant see al that much, but the hood lip and trunk are all vis

Just for your information their is NO hood that wraps the carbon around the edges. They make it look like they do but it is still a 2pc hood

k bud, if you say so. i guess im just seeing things

 

I just don't don't make hoods 12 hours a day 7 days a week. Believe what you want!

Just because they have carbon on the other sides doesn't mean they roll the carbon. Take pics and prove me wrong. if you look at the edge of the hood you can see where they ALL SEAM!

 

i put in car stereos all day, i dont know everything about that, i have the hood on my car, the sides fold under for about 3 inches. ill get pics. i dont have my car here so mayby tommorow

 

i like seibon

 

yeah, they don't fold, if you look at the hood their will be about a 1/8th inch of just black, not carbon or nothing, it is black gel coat, that is where they seam them. not tring to be a dick but i have to argue with a lot of people about this. I do this for a living and I know how all the manufacures work.

well, i have the fu*king hood on my car. its simple to see the edges its not like theres much to it. the top layer wraps under. plain and simple

 

can't wait to see this, it would be the first I have ever seen and i have seen hundreds of ViS, Seibon, and just about every other hood out their! All of them are 2pc hoods. They say 1pc design because at the end of manufacturing they are 1pc

 

i'm thinking seibon is the way to go, i hear the vis hoods are the heavist out of the majority of the other cf hood manufacturers

 

ill have to agree with this guy, because my vis hood has cf wrapped around to the bottom of the hood

 

not in the case of the DA hoods. my VIS hood is lighter then the Siebon version.
and its fits like a glove.

if its not on the site, they can make it for ya

 

i saw them in the sponsors market. I want to ask them to make me a kevlar hood and lip but i know its going to cost way more than i can afford

 

VIS is good fitment but it definitely fades pretty quick =X

Seibon for the win but a little pricey
