Default VIS SS Hood
Im thinking of getting this hood, but not too sure on the build quality and fitment as they dont provide too many pictures. Can anyone who has this or any of the VIS hood tell me what its like? Thank you.

Pretty sure VSGLS1 had a VIS carbon fiber hood. Not an SS hood but a smooth cowl. I'd check with him about quality and customer service.

Not at all... His hood is custom made by Whistler. Harwood copied the design after Chris (Whistler) won SLP day with that hood on his car...
