Looks really good. I always like how the carbon fiber hoods look on white cars. The left hoodpin (passenger side) looks like it is crooked?

Looks really good. I am still undecided on whether I should get the OEM cf hood or just the predator hood. But your ride looks damn sweet...decent!

i like. I'm getting a VIS cf hood next week so i'm glad the fitment was good. How does the cf weave and clear coat look as well?
Only thing i don't like is that the hood has the premade holes for squiters, my fiber images didn't have that, but ohwell.

ok , but I have always wondered how do you guys with hood pins keep someone from just walking up to your ride and popping the hood open?

Looks real nice. How was the installation? Like Chamuko said though, what happens if someone comes and unlatches it? Does it also latch shut like the OEM hood?

i don't know about the other guys but i still have my stock latch. I installed a cylinoid(sp?) so that i have a hidden button and hit that instead of pulling the latch inside the car to unhook the stock latch.

I like my decals, the only one I would probably think about takin off is that girlie girl chasing one on the back window, it still has a factory style hatch so you have to get inside the car to still pop open the hood. Thanx for the compliments guys.
