Have a VIS CF scoop. Don't have OEM hood laying around. My template says they are the same. Does anyone know if the OEM hood will seat it perfect?

The answer is. Maybe & NOPE.. .

The VIS CF scoop studs have a very lightly glassed thickness holding it onto the bonnet underbody. There are 4 studs located in about same location as OEM but not perfect.
I know no1 will buy this unless the bonnet fits perfect. I will be removing them later & again try fitment to test my theory.
