hugs and hand pounds, peace
If your trying to decide tell us what your trying to decide between and also what company your person you know had a bad experience with. might be able to help then
either oem or invader. and it is between VIS and JSP.

VIS invader all the way. Call it my bias opinion though.
Even pure genius is born out of insanity.
what about water? the invader will just put the water on you headers and fan

Not really. I dont know about anyone else with the invader hood but my engine bay strays pretty dry with it on. What little water that does get in from the car sitting in runs tight onto the radiator cover then falls off of that to the ground below at a slow roll. When at higher speeds it just spits the water back up through the scoop at the windshield.

Bah hell. Forgot to add that the first time it did it to me it had rained for a while and I took off pretty quick and when I got to about 50 it just started shooting water up at the windshield and it kinda freaked me out a little. I had a feeling when I bought the hood it would take air in through the front and then travel back out through the scoop but I just wasnt ready for the water bit so at first I was thinking "ahh @!#$, I have an oil leak!!"

what front bumper is this? my first guess would be summit but i'm not sure, that hood flows really well with the lines on that kit.
"Projeckt Z24": PHASE ONE....
vis is a great company. i got my cf splitter from them and its flawless. i have a cf classglass hood and its decent. fitment was a little bad but thats like an aftermartket part. as for the rain, mine has little vents on the underside. my engine bay stays dry
It is the summit kit. Only good 03+ kit I could fine that made my buddies look in thier rear view and think "holy hell, jj's car looks pissed off"

Does anyone have an opinion on the Carbon Fiber RK Sport Ram Air hood. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
RK Sport makes great C/F hoods but the only problem is that they are MEGA expensive

I'm a fan of the VIS OEM hood, but I'm kinda biased too!
I may not know much about cars, but I know two things....
1) Breaking things is expensive, and
2) Horsepower isn't cheap.
