VIS makes the best CF period. Especially the hoods, Because you dont have to drill a hole etc to lock it, because there hoods come with the oem latch, so its basically just take off oem hood replace with cf hood and your done. And there quality is excellent. Smooth,rolled edges and clear Coat FTMFW!!

VIS hoods do not need any kind of drilling, the windshield washer are already there, its just like a oem hood. No drilling required for anything, because everything is there
