anyone have the JDMSh!t carbon fiber hood?
JDMsh!t Carbon Fiber OEM Style Hoods V2 is $400 and im trying to decide if i should buy it. the problem is, is i dont know if they're any good. if some one has one can they let me know how it is for them? does it shrink? ect.

i know someone who has one and the thing i dont like about them is that the carbon doesnt go all the way to the edge of the hood.

HatchVX has one, it looks just fine and is plenty strong enough.
It looked like the CF went to the edge to me. :dunno:

I called them today, and they told me that the same people as VIS make their hoods. they said its VIS without the name.
