CF Hoods any that fit "GOOD"?
 
I have been looking to find a hood in CF that actually fits well. Every time I find a style that I feel looks good I end up reading from someone about (fitment) issues. I intend if I ever buy one or find one that folks say fits good to paint match it. The purchase is more directed at releasing engine bay heat vs cf look etc..

I really like the Siebon TS one for example however again a few threads and posts about bad fitment.

Can anyone share their experience on "good fitting" CF hoods that are very similar to the TS Siebon???

Many thx if you can share!!

I've got 2 customers with the OE Styel Seibon, they fit pretty nicely actually.

Varis hood, a bit like the seibon TS, really love it, perfect fitment IMO.

Seibon states to use hood pins instead hood dampers, is this true ? I do like the ts style but love the functionality of the dampers. Also is there any weight disparity, I know aftermarket cf hoods are usually heavier than our Oem ones.

Works with dampers just fine, the OE hood weighs 1 pound more than stock unfortunately lol

I had a CF seibon hood on my 135i and while it wasn't perfect fitment, it was close enough to be considered "good" I would say. I loved it.

Seibon is hit or miss in fitment. If you want REALLY good fitment you have to go Varis or Chargespeed from my experience.

I'll let you know the first week of Feb as my TS Seibon Hood will be getting installed along with the 10MM over fenders and Cwest Front bumper. :-)
