I'm in the market for a new CF hood and am looking for recommendations from folks that have purchased them as far as what brand to buy and who to buy it from.

I figure the design will be close to OEM, but I like the look of the little "louvers" on either side. I've seen a few I like, but I don't know anything about the reputation of the manufacturer or vendors.

thx

 

So far I've gotten 2 strong "NO"'s in regard to Seibon and a "YES" for chargespeed via PM. Any other opinions?

 

mines a seibon oem and i love it. had no problems. had it for about 8 months.

 

The one Robispec sells.

 

+1.

A lot of those CF hoods are actually heavier than the stock hood. Robispec claim their hood weighs 10lbs, substantially lighter than the stock hood. I would also recommend monstersport hood and the voltex one but they are very expensive obviously.

 

Deft hoods, very very light weight, pins needed

 

seibon copied voltex which makes it a knock off

 

Gialla FTW! yes they're lighter than stock, and yes they fit perfectly!, even have my washer nozzles fit back in perfectly (not that I ever use them)

 

I just ordered the HKS Kansai CF hood from Z1 Auto. It's 1x1 weave and supposed to fit like OEM and 10lbs lighter. Can't wait for it to get here!! I wish there were more pics of it on EvoM but the 1x1 CF looks great.

 

I have the chargespeed CF hood, its very light, need pins to stop flutter at high speeds. not sure on the exact weight but I bet its 2/3 of the stock

 

^I wish Chargespeed made an OEM cf hood.

 

Looking for a vendor up in the northwest if anyone knows of one. Or even a nice used one would be ok. Any info would be great, thanks.

 

^ Worldone is local but their prices are crazy and you'll have to pay sales tax. IE - their DoLuck trunk is about $200 more than Driveline and BP Auto plus tax = way too much.

Where's the best place to buy Chargespeed body parts?
