Not mine, but a customer's Quicksilver exhaust came in from the UK today. I'll add pics and video once installed.

It's a seibon hood. It doesn't fit as good as oem. Weighs about the same. Their dry carbon ones should weigh less.

Drove down to highway 32 to celebrate the end of break-in. Awesome road, perfect for this car. :-) And since it was never finished there is hardly any traffic, plus you get to turn around and do it again.. (Unless you fancy some rally driving, the NC bit is just gravel :-P)

When you say doesn't fit as good, like how bad? Major gaps or not straight etc? Looks great in pics but hard to see any poor fitment per say.

easy install (rear carpet may give you trouble) was too rainy to give a good turn but overall satisfied with them. Plus....they are sexy!

it sits higher up on the fender budge part.. I'll probably modify my fenders later for it to match. Aftermarket never fits perfect. haha

works like my Grimmspeed one I have (which is for sale now =D ) and was really easy to adjust. Definite plus.
