dont buy a carbon creations cf hood. I installed it thing doesnt fit worth shit im so mad. I put hood pins in it it brought the hood down almost flush. But the front of the da hood the middle piece that meets front bumper. That overlaps the front bumper looks so out of wack i just got this painted sti blue the car looks amazing except this huge eye sore. I guess it almost storage time so il deal with it now. But im def going to be looking at getting a new cf hood. What are some brands you guys installed that line up and fit good without hood pins… help me out plz.
i think my buddy runs a VIS cf hood and just bought a new bracket with no hood pins. looks like it fits good.
i got a vis and love it fits nice man
VIS is amazing even though its in my room rather than on the car
Vis and Seibon
I have a VIS.
No hood pins needed. Keep in mind though, with CF hoods and shit, you’ll never have perfect OEM fitment…
me to
+4 Vis
my next hood is vis.
Fiber Images > VIS > Seibon
thats strange… all the carbon creations ive seen on a DA look & fit amazing. never owned one but i always thought visually they looked top notch
i had terrible luck with VIS, when i got one of their carbon hatches for my DA. fits like complete shit. all they said was that they “hadnt heard of any problems with then at all”, and the only thing i could do was to ship it back to them at MY expense ($100+). F-that! i still have a fiber images hood though, which fits like a champ. the thing is almost 6 years old, and i have to re-clear it, but it does fit.
it seems very hit-or-miss these days with all the crap-ass carbon products coming out of asia. all these companies probly get their stuff from one company over there anyways.
seibon carbon hatches fit like shit to and carbon creations
^^^+1…
now it fits perfect got the proper hood pins installed, i guess it had to settle? lol
