Buy a VIS, call VIS directly, f*ck other vendors. Tell them to match one of their vendors prices, and make up a number.

Paul and I got our hoods for $400 usd each shipped. VIS or nothin.

Are the ones from VIS nice and smooth?
But my understanding is if it gets hit hard, u cant fix it, u must replace it. But I guess youd do that with a normal hood too.
I just saw one on a sunfire the other day and it looked amazing.

I sell VIS stuff at the shop here and chances are I could get a better price on it then you do. But who knows. The VIS stuff I have seen is all really good!
