Yes, that is the Veilside V1 Wing. They have more pictures of this in their gallery:

Here's a few more pics. Just an FYI, there is some clearance issues with the OEM strut bar. As much as the bodyshop tried to adjust it, it would still hit. I think you'll definitely need to get an aftermarket strut if you use this hood since they are flat & not as bulky as the OEM one. In any case, I had to remove my strut. I'm going to install the APS Plenum so I would've had to change my strut anyway. BTW...these shots are taken at my bodyshop since they were installing my kit. I'll be posting more shots later once I get my car back.

Default Rain guards 350z hood

I found these pics on autocrony website, is a carbon fiber hood but I think they have available a fiber glass version for each carbon fiber hood. With rain guards I believe.
Will be great if you give the hood a look and let me know what do you think.
Regards.
Leonardo

Personally Leonardo, not a fan. I don't like the lines it creates.

there is fitment issue with this hood. The vendor need to check on your design again.

Love the hood, but it doesnt seem to fit very good judging by GTNPU's pics. Either that or his front end isnt helping. How much are these hoods cant you just post a price for all to see?
