rolled edges means that along the edge of the hood, the carbon fiber is rolled over. and if it doesn't have roleld edges, the carbon fiber stop at the edges, and the sides are just flat black. and they are not smooth(rounded).

but for 300 picked up, this isn't that bad. you get what you pay for, even though you want your max looking best as possible.

Sorry for not replying sooner guys, I have been out of town since the 14th, just got back last night.

There is no limit on the number of people, I need at least 5 to get it going, as for when it would arrive, it all depends on when I get the order in because while I no longer need to fill a whole container, it will be coming with other stuff that needs to fill a container. I timed the last one so that it made it onto the container at the last second, making the wait only about 4-5 weeks for the people in the last GD.

Yes, the edges are not rolled.

As for shipping, I will find out how much to residential and how much to Hawaii as soon as I can and post it up.

Do you have pics of it installed on a 5th gen? Does it install with stock components? Also, as someone asked earlier, how does CF hold up in the winter?

Thanks

DHL/Airborne is very bad at getting back to people w/ quotes. It should be approximately $10 more to ship to a residential address.

How does this hood compare to the VIS hood in terms of quality and fitment besides the fact that this hood has cut edges instead of rolled.

Thanks

No, these are already as cheap as possible with me making very little or no money. I just needed at least 5 people in order to make this happen as an extension of the last GD which needed 20 people but fell short.

I don't have an exact weight, but I'd say about ~20 lbs give or take. Also w/ all CF hoods, it is not recommended that you use hood struts.

Because of recent developments, I am not going to do any more CF deals. All the hassle that I am going through with getting this price and making no money, its really not worth it.

Sorry guys.

(The thread about the first GD will explain somewhat)
