VIS Racing Sports hoods are pretty good quality hoods. Compared to most other hoods, they are top notch. The only thing that you will have to do with their hood is raise your stock latch a little bit. Other than that, guaranteed fit everytime. This is only good for OEM Style CF hoods. That is all I have seen installed on cars.

so the quality is good?? and it wont be a mistake to buy one.. that is good.. i can get one for about $400 and its not like raising the latch is all that hard =P.. how is the weave on them? is it a really big weave.. os is it a small weave that looks good... ive only seen the pictures on their website and you cant REALLY tell it looks like its a small weave.. cuz i have seen some CF hoods that have BIG weaves and i dont like them... it looks cheap and fake almost.. as far as the construction is it good?? well thanks for the info already.. more would be very helpful.. thanks

be careful what u buy.. i just got a hood.. but u know what? i was scared of drilling holes.. but after putting on some sparco pins.. i feel so much relief.. i dont have to worry about the hood opening up.. im not sure how good the vis hoods are.. but i heard the edges are nice and rolled in.. BUT IM not sure of that.. FIberimages make good hoods.. but make sure u get one with the exoskeleton underneath... i didn't pay much and my hood was custom made don't pay over 500 bucks man.. no matter what the qualuity is post pix up when its on
