That is a good price. And just like the others said, make sure of the quality that you're getting. VIS has some of the best hoods, but when they were first selling CF hoods (they might still have some left) they had some of the thinnest CF hoods (you can practically see right through them). Not trying to make you paranoid for this is a rare case, but I'm saying that it is still possible...

I also have a CF hood from VIS. It was on the car for more than a year w/ no problems (no need for pins). I think I might put it back on after this weeekend...
