Has anyone had any dealings with this company? And if so how was the product? I think most of the CF bonnets I remember reading of were off of ebay.

I suggest seeing an actual product before commiting.

the pic of the hood on the site is the one from M7. back when he was still dealing with hoods..

when it was tested on my car there is a gap of about 1/2 an inch between the top of the bonnet and the base of the piece in front of the wind screen, as I remember they were saying something about the resin shrinking. resulting in the gap.

VIS has a hood as well I don't know if it is from the same mold though. but it doesn't hurt to ask (I'm in the market for one as well)
