#71285, "Carbon Creations or VIS hood?"


          

Anyone ever seen this hood on an eclipse?
http://www.extremedimensions.com/shopexd.asp?id=4845

It's made by Carbon Creations... anyone know how well they fit or the quality of the hood? I'm either getting that one or the VIS Extreme GT one. What do you guys think?

By the way... It will be on with Z3 Fenders, Buddy Club 2 Body Kit, Kaminari KTR Spoiler, 18" RH C5 Rims... that will kinda help you visualize the end result... so... what do you guys think?

No matter what, no aftermarket piece will fit 100% correctly. For $475 and $100 shipping, I would want to be 1000000000000000000% sure it WILL fit properly. I would stick with VIS, even though I dont like either. Go crazy and add a hump or 2 on a regular cf hood, be unique. emoji

I read that Fiber Images makes some of the best carbon fiber hoods. Dont know if its true though. Their site shows how there hoods are durable as hell.


She's a good car. But it's time for me to move on. I'll miss her more than anything but my next car will have the same heart with the same passionate drivers. I hope things workout best for the both of us.
