What C.F. hood to go with Veilside Bodykit?

[TrDCeLiCa85]

I just ordered the Veilside Bodykit and I want to buy a C.F. Hood. What hood do you guys recommend? How about the V.I.S. Invader hood with raised hoodscoop?

how about BRS carbon hoods? and how the quality of the BRS hoods?

[cooltoy2000]

I believe that they are not made anymore (BRS).

does that new veilside hood come in cf?, that is a nice hood IMO

[turboceli2003]

cooltoy2000, that hood with that kit is bad azz!!

I'm worried about the VIS Invader with raised hoodscoop because I read that the fitment is terrible. Do you suggest I have a professional shop install the hood onto my car?

[BriCelica]

yes i think the invader looks awesome but i also have some concerns due to the overwhelming dissappointment expressed by this board

[J5ISALIVE]

u don;'t need a shop to install a hood...either it bolts up good and fits or it doesn't and it suck....its the luck of the draw with VIS. I ahve a VIS hood and its great.

[TrDCeLiCa85]

So the VIS Invader with raised hoodscoop bolted right on? Why do other with the hood complain about it not fitting?

yea but luck of the draw is kinda ****ty.....id be pissed if i got one that didnt fit right....ill raise hell...cuz i plan on getting a VIS Extreme GT or OEM carbon hood w/ raised scoop ....hopefully itll fit

[J5ISALIVE]

soem hoods don't fit cause they are crap quality, either the CF was laid incorrectly, or the mold sucks but u will no rigth away if its gonna fit or not, and not much u can do about it cause they are not fiberglass...

I'm going to try to buy a used one off another celica user
