okay so i've been desperately looking for weeks for a silvia hood and found this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...72847

its either that or some dude is trying to sell me an OEM hood for $300, but for that i might as well go carbon fiber..

the ebay link i posted does anyone know if the fitment will be good? its just so cheap

another ebay "will this work" thread....

everyone on this forum looks down upon no name stuff bro. especially from ebay. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

if you want to risk it, go ahead and get it

I got my silvia hood for $150. An oem metal one.

I got my VIS carbon one for $300.

You're overpaying.

Man, I got my OEM silvia hood for $100, continue to look aound.

I wouldn't pay that much for a carbon fiber hood for any car, id rather pay $300 for an OEM hood.

Get VIS or some other name brand besides SEIBON. I have heard they have fitment issues AND I have one and it HAS fitment issues. Look for VIS's CF FRP they seem to pretty damn good and majorly flexible.

And yeah, do what EVERYONE else says and get pins... OR ELSE!
