Carbon Fiber Hood options, Seibon or VIS?
Has anyone here installed a CF hood on their car and which model?
I only see stock appearing options from Seibon and VIS and then there's the extreme DTM carbon version from VIS.
What are your opinions on quality? I'm leaning towards stock since the DTM style is over the top in my opinion.
Why am I looking at a CF hood? Someone backed into my car and is buying me a new hood, headlight and repainting my bumper...so a new factory hood + paint = CF hood price. Why not?

Yeah I know I was just pointing out for general price comparison. Also Seibons site doesn't even show for r55/56 from what I could see. I'd say go with VIS, don't forget hood pins or something creative in the budget also.
