Default carbon fiber hood / lip for JDM integra.

I wanted to buy a Carbon fiber hood, and front lip for my car. I have heard Fiberimages and bodykits NW make really nice hoods. I just wanted to get more opinions as far as like quality and fitement etc. I also wanted to know if anyone knew where I could get a nice Carbon Fiber front lip for my JDM integ.
-Thanks

Vis hoods are very nice...Fiberimages are usually hit or miss.

I would go with VIS, personally.

so people pay $300+ to have a hood that not only doesnt match the car, but also only shaves off about 3lbs? wow......

Personally I like the build and fitment of
~ DG Motorsports
~ Hammerhead Aviation (for Civics)
~ VIS
~ FI

I would like to see (close up) a Benen hood to compare, but no one I know in my area has one to look over. Can't speak much about it then??
