akio74 · 10-15-2004, 01:10 PM

does anyone know of a reputable company that makes these? i had to go through 3 VIS oem hoods to get a good fitting one. dont really want to go through the whole process again.

i also heard that some of these hoods are made with fiberglass rather than cf...is this true?? thanks in advance!

Wings West used to make something like that for our cars... but it was an Evo hood and cost $800.

Honestly, its fugly IMO. Sorry to hear about your issues with the VIS, mine fit great for the last roughly two years.

I was looking at one of these a while back and the only place that I could find one in carbon fiber was by a company called Aerogear. They sell for $629.

i have the feeling he's not going for just cosmetic purposes, it might help the airflow for his turbo
