Siebon vented carbon hood installed
No I dont have the pics to post just yet. It's been raining alot lately here. I was kinda woried about K&N filter getting soaked with rain water cuz the vents are right above but it ran with no problems that I felt. This wasn't a light rain either, I mean a few good soaking 2 and 3 day long rainy stretches. The Quality it very good and fits as well. When it hasn't been raining you can see the heat rising through the vents when sitting at a stoplight. That makes me happy, cuz my Greddy turbo kit came in last week and come this summer she's gonna need alt the ventilation she can get...good thing I up graded the radiator when I did. I need to get the pics up before I get harrased too much.

Does your hood from seibon fits perfect or have little gap. I have the seibon oem style hood and it leave a nasty gap on the left side and my hood pin just can't bring that gap down.

Don't feel ripped off.I Live very far north In Alberta Canada ,Fort McMurray..5 your north of edmonton...My hood cost me 1188$ and my wing cost me 735$..candian funds.Thats a rip-off..but that's the price of living up north......Suggestion on the wing drill your hole staight through the trunk and bolt it down that way instead of in the post,it will suck it down snugg and don't be scared to shave down the post either.
