This seems a little more appropriate in show and shine. Not that I'm a big fan of people asking other people to choose for them (my suggestion is that you buy the one YOU like better), but you could post a poll to see the results of people's opinions.

look at the "fabulous" fitment of the VIS hood on their test car. that gap between the hood and fender is about what you will get. Sorry to burst your bubble but I had this hood and the fitment is pretty crappy.

guru has no idea what hes talkin bout, VIS is gonna be the best cf hood u can buy, thats what i have fits perfect and looks great. also just because a pic on ebay has rolled edges doesnt mean urs will, honestly i wouldnt buy a cf hood on ebay if ur gonna invest money in a hood like that i would spend the couple extra bucks and go w/ VIS
