ViS Fuzion hood

I've searched around cardomain and G35driver and also ClubG35 before it closed. does anyone have the ViS Fuzion hood installed? know of anyone that has it installed. I'm considering buying it but don't care for the carbon fiber look on my silver G so I'd have it colormatched to the paint of the car. but I want to see pictures of it installed (and preferably color-matched) before I get it. want the extra cooling before I install the SSR Twins

I did a search and found these 2, not sure if Black G has a painted hood.

I'd like to see a painted one. I've never been a fan of CF. It reminds me of those guys driving around with body panels that were pulled from a junkyard and never got painted! Flame all you want - just my opinion

I think I painted one would look sweet...

The hoods look way too busy. Even with a bodykit they just look too much to go with the lines of the car.

It Looks Better In Person

the hoods looks weird on pics and online, it only looks good in person...

i have friends that tells me when i drive behind them, it looks like i'ma eat them up... it looks really aggressive in person... everytime i pull into a parking lot, people turn heads to look at it... i've even seen people stick their face in the front hole to look whats inside...

Yuck! Looks cheesy. Detracts from the G IMO.

I like the TS/Top Secret hood. I think that would look good if painted.

Super lightweight, aggressive yet refined, great fitment and quality...and this is our own original design. These will be in stock in the U.S. this month.

Does anyone think it would be "posing" if you had one of these vented hoods, but didn't really have any modifications under the hood? Cause technically, the vented hood would help with allowing hot air to escape even on a stock car.

both of those picutres are unpainted. agree that pictures of the hood don't do it justice. mine is currently on the way to the body shop to be color matched to the car. silver G, BTW. with the front bumper and license plate and grille and air ducs, the front end is a bit busy. so I'm simplifying it. I have no front plate, I'm installing the hood, replacing the front grille with the Gialla Corsa one. all of this then either the Nismo front bumper spoiler or the Ings+1 front spoiler and the front will be clean as ever.

LivyathanZero,
Did you consider buying the Seibon hood for G35. The TS model looks very similar to the TopSecret widebody hood. The JS style is less aggresive.
