So I got the VIS carbon fiber hood on and got the JDM rear bumper painted and installed. I also re-sprayed one of my sets of wheels

until your hood decides, one day, it wants to be your windshield, especially on the highway

Ive never had Hoopins on any of my VIS hoods, you can adjust your latch to make it extremely snug...

a VIS hood ate my windshield and top of the roof of my spec-v at 40 mph the 2nd day i had it. the latch failed and broke apart, the actual hood latch.. not on the car.. the VIS latch was still inside of my spec-vs latch mechanism broken apart.. so in my experience.. i'd say put them on asap. i heard the same thing, you don't need them.. i wish i had not listened to that.

yep.. but then you have a piece of a VIS hood stuck in the latch all snug, and a hood up in your windshield..

My 5 years having VIS hoods on two different cars never had that problem...You must of had a faulty hood or something...

Taking my cars on trips to canada and back....spirted driving never had a problem in any condition

that's what i thought.. i even called VIS, sent them pics.. everything.. they didn't seem to care. so i just fixed my car and put my oem hood back on :P it's a crapshot really.. the way i look at it after my experience is better safe than sorry. luckily subaru hoods are already light as hell stock :D

lownslow95 · 12-10-2009, 08:08 PM
