I ordered it from Jimmy Cox at Extreme Composites. Some people have had issues with them being slow to ship but I called them, they started the hood same day and sent it out in like 2 days total. You can order it with heat extractor vents for 900 or the way I got it for 700, came quickly and required minimal prep work before painting. Some people have had fitment issues, mine fits great though. Shipping is killer though, but the hood is one my favorite mods well worth it in my opinion.
Have not seen actual data to back this up but as compared the Specter Werkes hood the EC hood seems like it has a more aggressive cowl. Which at some angles it almost is not aggressive enough so I definitely would not go more moderate.

I would have gone with 19s over 20s, but nontheless, that's the best looking wheel I've seen on a V in a loooooong time. Well done. |

I really like the hood and the clear fogs 
Do those fogs come complete, or are they just the clear lenses, then you need to break yours to install them? |

Hey guys..thanks for the compliments.
To answer some of the questions the car was dynoed on a Dynojet and those are the corrected numbers
The fogs are the yourgmsolution lenses so I had to bake the old foglight housing to get it apart and reseal it..the fogs were purchased, along with the sidemarker, running light bulbs and low beams bulbs from an ebay vendor, all 8000k and the "hyperwhite" LED clusters..I can find the vendor if anyone wants but its the same link i'm sure you guys have seen a bunch in the example of the ad it shows a cts with the 8000k fog and lowbeams.
Not sure about the link I swear I ordered it off the lockpicksolutions website featured on the sidebar but I do not see the foglight options anymore just clear side lenses..anyone know what is up with that? |
