Default Go with fiberimages. Good strong hood no fitment problems
Vis is not very good to say the least. I have the fiberimages hood and decklid. They both fit like stock componets and do not require hood pins. I have taken the car to 140 and did not notice any vibration what so ever.

Default Re: Go with fiberimages. Good strong hood no fitment problems
I have a fiberimages hood and found the hood to be a little raised. I lowered the hood latch on the core support all the way down and the hood is still a little bit raised. Maybee you have some suggestions? Probably just needs adjustment.
