I have the same exact hood......looks as if that was me opening it. Same packageing and everything. Mine looks good and is a ton lighter than my stock. The only thing wrong with it now is.......the little dents coming on it from the heat off the motor, I would suggest some kind of heat shield or put the stock heat barrier from the stock hood on it.

I'd recommend some hood pins. My Vis CF hood flew up and busted out my whole windshield and dented the roof on my old Eclipse. Funny thing was it did like $2500 damage to the car but the hood was still in good shape, minus where it cracked back by the hinges. Then again I was the idiot who didn't latch my hood all the way, it taught me the hard way. You probably wouldn't need hood pins really as long as your hood is all the way latched, but just in case.

hey
sounds good to me..
BTW my hood weight 8kg..that is around 17lbs...really less then stock..(but this could be fiberglass with carbon vynil too...)
You got dents from heat..you got venting hole.."Invader style" got...

Ya, I know the hole in the hood releases alot of heat, but after the first summer with my hood on...........I noticed little dents on the hood and was told it was from heat. So just to be on the safe side, I would put the stock hood heat shield under the VIS hood. Better safe than sorry.

hey, wait a minute, AREN'T YOU THE GUY WHO WATCHED HIS CAR BURN DOWN.

as my ap physics teacher says, "ummm.... don't talk now"

It had a latch, but it wasn't all the way closed. I had just put in a MBC and was popping the hood like every 2 minutes to adjust it. I thought I might as well just not shut it all way since I had to open it so much. Not a good idea .

Well i didn't watch it burn but lets say i didnt do enough

That sucks! I don't think I'd have courage to buy another DSM after having one burn down. My wife is already complaining that I should have got an EVO MR instead of spending money on my Talon every month.

If you get EVO..you will not spend money to modyfication???I think for people like we are...its a vicious circle. You will never stop make something on your car..Because you wanna be better..faster

 

[MarsaGSX]

now back to my questions..
.Howmuch weight your VIS hood??
And what is written on yours hood label????
THX

 

[HearMeSpoolin]

Where did you get that rear bumper from?

 

[MarsaGSX]

Where did you get that rear bumper from?

its a custom job..and actually was on car,when bought. I don´t like so much,cus now wanna make new custom exhaust and wanna make muffler back in place where is Stock..know you understand
I was thinking make dual sound..two mufflers.especially with Bomex rear bumper looks really COOL But weight wins
Iam european...talking about.. 99% of you Americans love 2GB Front bumper,NO widebody kits,some of you hate aftermarket body kits and single muffler in stock place...we Europeans like more changes...This is because in my country..here is not much tuners in that "true sense of lyric"95% of guys in my country make just body..new paint,some agressive body kit-custom made with fiberglass,nice rims,window tint. And then..if got some money,buy China Air filter,some new sparks, cut out CAT converter,buy new china shit muffler for loud sound..these people don´t know what wor"Tuning" Mean!
check this:http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/sho...ighlight=have+you+ever+seen+craziest+body+kit
made in Czech
BTW wil change my rear bumper for your "stock"...can you send to Czech I think shipping around 700usd not impossible..great deal..what ya think? or
