Got My CF hood today :)
I finally got my hood...I love DHL. I always get my packages early from them.
Here are some Pix...and yes...it's really ViS for $468 shipped.
Here's my baby just waiting for it...I would have installed already but it started to snow today
Rolled edges

I'm driving to Florida so I need to save some money....I think I'll hold off on the Lids for a while. (2 weeks )

yeah, the eyelids are gonna set off both our hoods. i got mine from SCO for just over $500 with tax, i believe. i cant remember the exact amount, cuz i used a credit left over from something else, so i only paid the difference. you definitley made out better tho.
maybe it will be time for a mini-tri state meet soon

Looks to be very good quality. I've heard nothing but good things about VIS, and wish I had one now. I was just looking at that last week on ebay, and debating. Now that you've beaten me to the punch and made it look all good, I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and de-vest in one. Nice job, and thanks for being one of the few that took the ebay chance.

it actually looks kinda hot since your front lip isnt painted, but i know your not leaving it like that. lines up nice, and the fitment on the front seems pretty much standard VIS.
how much lighter was it than stock?

I also think the CF hood is not as curved as the stock hood.

Off topic, but do you guys think the smoked (painted black) HIDs like Polak's and KCMC's would look good on a Sterling Mist? I saw one that looked pretty cool, but it was only one picture and now I don't know who it was. Although I guess doing this with DDEs already epoxied on might be a b*tch.

see, i dont personally like that. aside from the orange, he didnt paint the silver on cylinders, those are still that silver color. it has too much going on in there. chrome, silver, orange, and black. IMO, those silver cylinders should also be black, like on mine. to each his own, but i think it would look better with everything painted except the chrome rings
