nice going, you made me wake my mom up w/ laughter

 

biggest dilemna of ur life? Wow, what a great life you have! Carbon fiber hoods are usually just a fiberglass hood with a carbon overlay. True, all CF hoods are much more expensive. Check http://www.carbon-fiber-products.com/. They got nice stuff.

 

if you want best weave and fitment go with seibon...If you dont have that much money try vis or atleast a ebay one.

 

I have a VIS CF hood and I would recommend it. Perfect fitment, great quality, have had it for two years and hasn't faded. Normal wear and tear however(ie: a rock chip here and there, but that'll happen.)

 

I have a VIS as well, I got it 2 months ago brand new for 300. The fitment is about as perfect as I've ever seen. I got the OEM style, the vented versions might be more.

 

ive got a vented VIS hood for my teg for about $550 on ebay brand new.....perfect quality...however not the cheapest....but i dont recommened going with the cheapies....like they said above its normally just fiberglass with cheaper carbon fiber, and i heard they fade fast too.

 

i say go for seibon

 

I heard from a lot of people that Seibon is the way to go and I have the money for it !! and I think I'm going to do that !!

 

i have a VIS also, and it is holding up well in the NC heat of the summer.

 

Seibon Or ViS ?? buying my hood tomorrow !!! HELP

 

If you have the money definetely Seibon. I hear people always saying they wish they bought Seibon, so go for it. Good luck

 

I have a Kaminari full carbon fiber hood and love it! Check em out, they are pricey though.

 

I have a 96-98 Seibon that I'm selling, I love it

 

everyone i know with a vis cf hood has spider cracks around the latch area. otherwise they are pretty sweet.

 

check out carbon worx

GO Seibon. VIS sucks

 

BKNW...

 

SEIBON!

 

VIS FOR THE MONEY IS YOUR BEST BET...

GOOD EDGES, SMOOTH CLEAR COAST AND GOOD WEAVE.......

 

SEIBON! It is the best one to go with right now. Infact, I am going to pick one up this week as well. I have had a VIS hood in the past, and It was great. It did crack arround the latch area though, that is why I do not reccomend that company. SEIBON!

 

theres millions of threads that has to do with this..
just go for the one you can get the same day
