I wonder if its really a TRUE ViS carbon fiber hood? I dont really want to buy the 'no brand name' one on Vpower, ide rather buy something from a company with a good reputation, even if it dose cost slitely more. But if ViS is making carbon fiber hoods for our cars now that would be sweet. But i will wait till a reputable vendor is selling them, because i just dont like Ebay all that much.

i bought the carbon fiber hood i had from vpower and it is a verrry nice hood no porblems at all nice edges and everything

but i had to sell it cuz i needed the money :cry:

but it was sooooooooo nice

are CF hoods durable? as in do they protect you like the stock hood? cuz im thinking they might be weaker but i dunno.

randy

The CF hoods are probably actually MORE durable then the stock hood, atleast more dent resistant i bet, carbon fiber is supposed to be pretty damn strong, so im sure you could sit on the hood and not hurt it at all.

oh yeah i had a couple ppl sit on mine and it didnt do anything

and hte ones from vpower, u dont need a hood pin? cuz some cars wit CF, i see a hood pin

oh u definantly should have hood pins if your gonna have a lighter hood even though it does have the correct latches as the stocck hood it still can fly up

trust me......... hapened to a friend of mine

Looks like they went ahead and got me a hood. I don't know what kind they got but I'll call them tomorrow and find out. Right now I'm at work and they'll be closed by the time I get off. They did tell me it's coming from California though when the told me. So I should get my car back Monday, but if I'm luck It'll be back Friday. I'm stuck in a Saturn SL2 until then. I hate the car, but its pretty quick (faster than the rolla, which doesn't say much).
