ViS CF Hood - 6G Celicas Forums

YaY!

I got my hood!

I'm happy with it, but my friend found a flat spot. its almost like a dent. very small, but still there.

I was wondering if anyone has encountered this or have worst problems when they got their hood.

i have heard they look horrible in the sun and have a bad problem with showing scratches and swirl marks. has anybody had any of these problems.
I have a carbon fiber hood, and i have had no problems with it...it is good!!!
i have the vented hood and so far have had no problems and i think it looks great
i have a coupled friends that bought the cf hood from vis one with a maxima and a sentra se-r and both of their hoods got some sort of bubble on it
Mine looks great. You'll be able to find imperfections in anything if you look hard enough. But mine has no flat spots, bubbles, or swirl marks and I've had it for several months. It also looks GREAT in the sun!
When I first got mine it had a swirl look to it when the sun hit it just right, but after I waxed it....the swirls went away, now it looks kick ass! >biggrin.gif>

i am awesome
I ordered a VIS hood and it had some messed up parts in the weave. I ended up having it painted. Not completely, but with racing scallops to still show off the CF and it came out great.

I should have pictures up soon. I was going to take some last night or this morning, but it started raining and has'nt stopped.
