I love the look of the GT hood but fitment may be an issue. I got one a while back and was never able to work it out after many hours of labor. If accolade has re-designed and fixed that problem, i would get it.

Rigo, I just talked to Will who runs Cerious Performance and he said that they won't be getting any carbon fiber hoods for at least 2 weeks. The 2 weeks was for the OEM C-West and minimum of 6 weeks for the C-West Evo style!!! He said that since they are a JDM item and are comming from Japan, it takes longer and I have to wait.......... Boooooo....

never really heard any negatives on ths VIS
That was just mine from waxing with the wrong stuff and not taking good care of it.
