Its good quality, its made by VIS, the guy selling it work for Race Creations, hes kind of a retarded so be aware. I have his personal cell if you have any trouble. as far as fit it fits great I had a litte trouble and had to ajust my fenders a little but its all lined up great now, but I had an accident, front end and the alingment wasnt right to begin with, you should have no trouble.

I don't know where the idea came from that a CF hood might not be smooth. They're smooth as silk, even the dirt-ass cheap ones. The weave is covered in a bunch of layers of clear coat and with a little bit of scuffing it takes to painting very well. Any competent shop won't even flinch if you ask them to paint it. If they do, take it somewhere else.

I have sent all kinds of CF hoods here at work to the place that painted my hood...they always come back perfect.
