CF Hood Fitment....

Does anybody have any tips on a getting a Seibon CF hood to fit well? Or any CF hood for that matter? I'm having issues getting it to align all the way flat on the sides near the front. Thanks for any tips.

I bought the exact same hood. AMAZING PRICE shipped to my door. It is in transit now and will arrive friday, i will post up pics soon after wards. I have some pictures of the hood he took for me before it was shipped, i will upload them tommorow. The hood looks great for the price, grade a cf, and is the exact same style of the OEM hood; meaning you can use the mesh and vent/rain deflector (a must in WI) from the stock hood.

How can I get one of those hoods. Website or contact? Would help me out. I got a ding in the front of the stocker from a rock so it needs to go. How bout some pics with one install. Thanks!

It did work out for the best but had somewhat of a headache getting is all sitting right. They were also ready to take it back with me paying shipping...never mind that right now, hehehe. Anyway, it is fixable just spent some time with it.

Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like I might have gotten one of the problem hoods. I think I'm going to talk with Seibon, before I mess with it any further.
