This Hood is not in production Yet
I got the Fiberglass hold from MVPMotor Sports, the Hood didn't fit, So They Custom Made a Carbon Fiber hood for me instead
Will have more pics up later

Wow. I remember reading about how they were going to send you this a few months ago, and I wasn't sure to believe it or not. That is one cool hood man. Props to you.  Edit: Get some more pics of it too, well, if you get a chance.

nice -  I'm interested in seeing some better shots as well and also comments on the fitment and possibility of rain getting into the engine bay through those vents...

Don't care for the vents on the sides, but Carbon Fiber is always awesome!

I like the vents, but I'm not crazy about the white grill in it, but that probobly matches the rest of your car. And GraSSRooTs, nice to see that sig put to good use! It's an honor to me to see you use it. If anyone else wants one, I'd be glad to do one for ya just PM me!

I like it a lot!  The only thing is that it doesn't seem to fit 100% (big gap in the front), and since the Fiberglass hood had such bad fitment (as many people noted, yourself included), I'd be cautious about buying one myself.

looks good.went to veilside.com and it says that it comes in both Fiberglass and carbon fiber now. personally i am waiting for this hood to come out for our car. which is the RE-amemiya hood, but vis racing has a new hood that looks just like it.

dude, i love that hood, the VS hood is by far my favorite, follwed closely by the Invader. it's just got a mix of clean and aggressiveness put into it all in one, it just blends perfectly. personally though, it only looks good on the complete FFGT kit IMO, that's the only way i'd have it done

When it rains it should be OK
The right side of the vents are right over the engine plastic so that is OK. The left side is over the small open part right next or over my tube for my short ram Intake that should also be fine too.
I have a friend with a open hood scoop for his Celica and he says that rain never goes in no matter how hard it is raining. I think he is lying, but the engine may get so hot that the water just vaporize when it enters.

Good luck when it rains. (with those last hoods) Should be fine, everything under the hood is pretty well waterproofed. (Just think of all the people who already have the VIS invader hood)

The Cost was
----------$0.00----------------
they messed up on my other order and is making up for it by custom making me a custom hood.
Even if you don't know if their hood is good or not. Be sure to know that their Customer Service is the BEST!
