Not even close.

I'm not feeling it, or the Mastergrade one.

You guys are nuts if your going to spend $1000+ on a cheap VIS hood. It probably cost them $100 to make that in China, just like the rest of their parts.

Vis FTL big time.

Interesting. I don't think I'd spend 1k on it though. I mean if I am gonna spend that much may as well get an authentic TS hood.

I have a VIS hood and its pretty good compared to some of the Seibon hoods I've seen out there. Its really hit or miss with a CF hood.

right, for $500 its good quality but MSRP on that "Extraction" hood is $1300 !!!

Double that of any other hood made by Vis, but they are all made side by side in China. It's always "hit or miss" when you buy a wet hand laid hood. The authentic JDM hoods are more expensive because they are vacuum bagged or dry carbon, a MUCH better quality and fitment then that of wet hand laid. This wet hand laid Vis hood is the cost of a vacuum bagged or dry carbon hood.
