Aero Workz CF hood.

Me too. Maybe CF hood owners can chime in.

Just got the Seibon Carbon VSll style not too long ago and have the same issue in the front, not a big prob for me but it is there and was installed by a professional. I started noticing the same gap you guys are on other cars to tho. Amazed at how many different companies have the fitment off.

Did you go back and ask them if anything can be done about it?

Seibon is hit or miss. On my 240, i got two of the same hood. First was was totally warped. Second one fit fine. Just the nature of mass production

also why those hand-made to order JDM parts are so fuckin expensive

Gap.

( Click to show/hide )

fwiw another Seibon TS style, no gap and had even body lines around the fenders on both sides.
