    Ebay CF Hood?????

    Are they any good? Like quality wise? I don't want to buy one and have it turn and fade yellow on me I want to know if anyone around here is running around witth a cf hood bought from ebay. I know that VIS makes good quality hood, but I'm on a budget.

    everyone i've talked to that has bought an ebay CF hood has said its shitty quality and not worth it... i'd suggest saving up for a VIS

        ebay doesn't make carbon fiber hoods, check the brand.

            i perhaps should have made a blanket statement and said that ebay doesn't make anything other than an online/internet forum through which to sell parts.

            so, the clarification needs to be made as to what brand of hoods your friends bought on ebay, and for chan_man, what brand of hood are you looking at on ebay?

            quality items can be found on ebay, as well as not so quality items on ebay. the point being that one cannot make a blanket statement that carbon fiber hoods on ebay are garbage. i would say that a low end company's hood, whether sold on ebay or elsewhere, will not stand up to the quality of vis or seibon.

            suffice to say the most important thing when looking at the product is the brand, and not the fact that it's being sold on ebay.

                Yeah, you can find real VIS or Seibon carbon fiber hoods on ebay. Either one of those will be good quality. When it comes to that don't buy anything that is off brand because they will either not fit right or fade or whatever else you can imagine.

                  LOL! I have been so caught up with the ebay crap that I meant to say What is a good brand name CF Hood besides VIS that are sold on ebay. I'm looking for an OEM replacement.
