OK I'm going to be buying a carbon fiber hood soon and I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with this. I want to purchase the best quality hood. I have looked at VIS and Seibon. I want one that's going to last a long time and look super shiny. I also would like to ask everyone if there is a carbon fiber hood that you can buy that does not have to have the front pins? I actually hate these pins. I want my hood to look factory far away but up close look carbon fiber. I would also like to ask if anyone knows of an honest place to buy the hood from? One more thing, are there any other installation screws/bolts or anything I made need extra for the installation? Any information would be appreciated.. Thanks in advance.. Breeze

 

vis only....and i mean only. anything else and you are going to have a crappy fit and it will start to peel after one summer.


with the vis you do not need the pins. it has the stock latch like your oem one does, and they have three different styles and one of them looks exactly like your oem hood.

 

Thank you lightshow!! I also wanted to ask you what do you think about buying the VIS carbon fiber hood on e-bay? Would I be safe doing this? If not could you recomend a place I can order it from?

 

Hello..
I bought my hood 4 years ago from www.cbwheels.com in florida..high quality genuine carbon fiber hood , not just for looks.

My hood is a direct fit and came with all the doodads and latches and the weight was about 25lbs less than the comptions when I checked out the weights..
Take a look at there site and if you buy and inquire with them...tell them that WheelBrokerAngelo sent you, they will more than likely give you a Discount..
