VIS Carbon Fiber

http://www.visracing.com/newcatalog/...unk-11146.html

Stumbled upon this little gem(no, not that one) and I thought it may be a alternative to Seibon? I know people have had iffy experiences with them.

I did a little research and found people to be on the fence with these guys too. Anyone have any experience with these guys?

I saw the trunk. Looks to be a nice piece but never heard of them. Curious to know their track record as well. There's a guy on these forums who said he just purchased one. Said he'd post pics as soon as he installs

VIS has been around for years. They aren't as big as Seibon and from what ive seen their products are better especially in the R&D department. @staycrushing

My buddy has a hood from them and to be honest it's not that bad. I was surprised on how good it was actually.
