I've dealt with imoto.com, well importparts.com which is the same place, but the performance site (imoto is the looks site). Anyway called the place and asked if I could pick up the stuff I bought from them instead of shipping and I could, so I saved on that and taxes, AND he knocked some dollars off too. Anyway the guys there are really cool, but I suggest IMing them.

Really? I had no idea imoto was the same as importparts. I heard some bad things about importparts from other members of the board. How much do they sell their kits for if you pick it up?

Well, when I had a (sigh) Honda, I bought my exhaust, intake, altezzas, springs and a few other things. But no bodykit parts, put it this way, the altezzas were like $250 on the site, I got 'em for $200, AEM CAI was $225, got it for $200, springs were $150 instead of like $200. Anyway if you look under customer service or something, they list their AIM names. I dunno though, I haven't bought anything from them since I got the 'clipse and they don't seem to be updating their site nearly as often. Anyway, good luck.

I have a CF from NOPI. It's pretty nice quality and this fit is about the best I have seen so far. The problem that I have had with the CF hood's is that the hood bows a little more than the fender on the driver's side. It's not real bad, but the hood does stick up a little further than the fender. I think it may have something to do with the hump being on that side. This is at least my experience, and this is the second CF hood that I have had. The first was from VIS. The passenger side fits perfect, and the side gaps are about the same width as factory. Overall the hood is good quality and fit. No pins though so you have to get those seperate. Joe 97 GS w/ Hahn stage 2 Keep cruisin' & keep the shiny side up. http://joeseclipse.homestead.com

buy Sparco hood pins!!!! they run about 40 buck for a pair but they are aluminum so they do not rust. i use to have a set from Mr. Gasket and they rusted on me. i mean look at the sig! wouldn't you rather have a nice looking set like these instead of a cheap set that will rust?
