I've seen a lot of Seibon hoods on FDs that have not aged well, and fit horribly. From what I hear they are alot better now and many 8 owners have good experiences with the product.

either way, these two brands for CF hoods are the best way to go. I have only seen a VIS hood in person and I thought the fitment was pretty good.

Seen a lot of seibon hoods turn yellow after awhile, and I have heard many fitment issues also. VIS is a much better one to go with IMO.
