It says $800 on the website you linked. How'd you get the $675 discount? what's the code?

Has anyone used these hoods previously, how do they compare to the Vis hoods quality wise?
Sounds like a great deal, almost too good to be true ...which is what worries me.

Thanks for the info and will be sure to post updates with pics once I have it in hand. I do know that it is a CF outer shell with fiberglass inside shell that matches the factory "S" hood with build in scoop. The main reason I'm buying it is to replace my "Cooper" hood that I damaged after installing the M7 brace. Not a big deal, just two small dimples where the brace bolts to the strut caps.

Tuls, I love how you painted your hood. One of things I'll be doing after I install it is playing around with vinyl and paint schemes.

no pic yet, but based on my call with them and looking at others online I took the risk.

Picked up my CF Hood today, have not opened the box, will do that at Blakes on Sunday. It's so well packed that I dont want to risk damage on the way south Sunday, so we all get to see it together.

Hey Local Gang, you helped me unpack it at the BBQ, now you can see it on the car. Thanks to Blake and Bob at CooperGear.com for all the help with the install. Enjoy, Dustin

Now to find a grill.

while I didn't do it for that reason, I think about half or better then the stock metal.
