carbon fiber hood

ok, i know this has been talked about alot, and i did a search and all and what i thought for a while was that the VIS cf hood was the best, but recently ive seen some of there stuff not fitting, and i thought cerious performance looked good too but there stuff hasnt been fitting either, so which company ALWAYS has fitting hoods and trunks? is there any? i need to buy one this week to get ready for the summer shows

Yup Carbon Trix...no vents I think.
I have the Genisis Performance hood...same as cerious performance hood and it fits good but no great. But It's good enough for me.

I also have the cf hood from cerious performance and it fits now after my body shop adjusted it and moved it down a little. Hood pins help too.

it was included in the price of them putting on my Apex II body kit (which wasn't cheap, since accolade sells cheap kits)

I have the VIS Evo VI style hood and it fits good...had to play with it a bit to get it to line up evenly on both sides...fits good and looks mean as hell...but I dont know if everyone of their hoods fits the same as mine...but good luck

ive got the cerious oem cf hood and it fits great on the sides but theres a little gap between the front bumper and stock grill. maybe its because im using the stock grill i dunno. but the quality is awesome. im hoping it will line up better once i get the cf grill.
