VIS carbon fiber hoods suck!

Looked at a sample this past weekend from a seller. Boy, the quality and the weight on those are inferior to stock. Not even close IMOP.

Vis as a company sucks. IMO Seibon is a better company

Also have a VIS, and the fit is not perfect. But, its not bad. There is certainly nothing wrong with the quality of the hood as far as weave, waviness or clearcoat quality.
