so is deft better than seibon carbon fiber or is it basically the same?

 

My Seibon fits 100% perfect

 

My Seibon also fits perfect


-Bink

 

I have no experience, but I have never heard of Deft...

 

maybe some pictures for comparison?

 

seibon is complete junk i got a cf hood for my 350 Z and 6 months later its showing signs of yellowing. All my viz and aitracing and Nrg and my custom made cf weave i do is perfect. I have heard of deft racing

 

I hate seibon!!!! They are good if you want to blow $800 on something that yellows in 6 months. Thats just not right. How could they even still be in business?? Think about buying anything else for $800 that only last that long, like a computer or T.V. It wouldnt happen.

 

A lot of marketing is why they are still in business. People see their ads and get drawn in. I have seen some of the worst fitting hoods and trunks from them.

 

I have only heard of a handful of not "bad" reviews of Seibon. They rip products off (much like most any knock-off brand), and typically produce (again, from what I have read and seen) garbage prodcuts that usually have pretty horrendous stories about fitment and quality. I would never buy a Seibon product. Ever.

As for Deft, I have never heard of them.

 

I have had my Seibon for over a year now no yellowing or fading at all. If it does someday I'll get it recleared. I had a Fiber Images hood on my Teg years back it yellowed I got it recleared for 100. Good as new.

$800??? Where do you buy parts I paid 450 NEW.

And yes my Seibon fitment is 100% perfect.

 

yeah my friend has had his seibon hood, and trunk on his evo for two years now. no faiding or yellowing as of yet. he loves seibon. I used to have a vis racing hood on one of my cars, i came back from iraq, and it was all faded, sun burnt, and milky looking.

 

wow, you must be special, here are a few examples. The first ones that came up under google. (beside seibons site, they dont have prices)

I guess they gave you an ultimate discount and free shipping? It is not cheap to **** a hood. I have done it on numerous occasions.
Please let us all know where you bought your brand new hood for $450.

 

^freudian slip?

copy/pasted: "It is not cheap to **** a hood"

 

i know cvs motorsports was selling the seibon OEM design hood for 487 shipped what they quoted me back in august before i got the custom one i have now. Prices may have gone up considerbly of course

 

CVR but yea. So if you factor in what it cost to freight ship the hood say 30 to 50. You arrive at figure posted
