Like i said to other people that think they are funny. If I wanted lip from you, I would have pulled down my pants. I got it cuz it looks good. Don't you think if i was speed oriented I would have bought something else other than a celica.

looks nice. hows the construction on the ViS hood? I think you're the first one here with one (and yes I know 1bwilson has a c/f hood but thats from fusion imports).

and honestly, how is the weight. wondering if its worth it for weight reduction purposes.

IMHO something needs some paint... whether you paint the car black or the hood silver... its just too contrasting IMO...

Thanks for all the nice comments guys..

I got it for looks, not overall weight reduction purposes because speed isnt my first priority right now..i like the way it looks on a silver car so i am gonna keep it this way.

VIS Racing's hoods are great. They use the stock mounting equipment and it took like five minutes to put on with two friends. There is a bigger gap on the left than on the right and I just have to loosen the fender and move it up. I'll get around to it.

As for the pics, yes my camera is garbage. I'll change the batteries today and take some outside since it's nice out wink.gif

Check back for pics later.. biggrin.gif

A lot lighter.

I didn't weigh them but i can pick up the C/f through the hook on the latch and the stock one takes two hands and its still like hard to pick up...just to move it into the garage.
