VIS Carbon Hood Fitment and Quality Issues?

The only carbon hoods I would recommend are Varis or Amuse. Fitment, quality, finish, everything is spot on and flawless. Then again I might be a little biased.

VIS worked out well for me. The CF has been painted OEM black but fitment was legit:





small gap just in the front but not enough to even really notice

EDIT: you can see the gap a bit better from this angle, though still not bad imo

COSMO likes this.
