Which brand of carbon fiber hood to go with????
I am looking for your opinions on which Brand/manufacure of carbon fiber hoods are best to go with.
I've seen a couple I like but not sure who is better to go with.
Can anyone suggest a good brand/company to go with for a carbon fiber hood?
Cheers

I have heard good things from VIS. Just curious as to why you want a hood so bad. I would rather throw my money at the motor/turbo then worry about that later.

Most carbon fiber hoods found in the US are just run of the mill fiberglass hoods with one sheet of CF and a **** load of gel-coat over the top to give ot the look. If you could find a fiberglass hood I would just go with that. If you just want the look, pick your poison.
Also, just about every fiberglass body piece that is made for an S-chassis will require modification for a good fit. There are a few that actually fit fresh out of the box, but that's just word on the street. I've had to modify higher priced items just as much as cheap items.
I have no recommendations, just advice.
