CF Aftermarket Hoods

Anyone have any experience (know anything about the quality, fitiment, etc.?) with one of these?:

C Class C63 08 10 4 Door Mercedes Benz DTM Vis Racing Carbon Fiber Hood | eBay

Seibon 08 11 Mercedes C Class Carbon Fiber Hood GT W204 | eBay

Or any others for that matter?

My facotry make carbon fiber hood, sometimes it may have small problem in fitting, after all, it is hand work to make this. No factory can gurantee 100% for all the hoods a perfect fitting, they copy the original hood in carbon, they even don't have the car to test the fitting in some cases. VIS Racing and Seibon, they do retail, I think the fitting should be no problem, you are assured to buy this, if there are any problem, they should be responsible for all the loss may bring to you.

Well this would be a good opportunity to offer your product then. Post a link.

I've had both VIS and Siebon hoods, not on the benz but on other car, fitment was spot on.

Yes, Seibon and Vis have built their companies and reputations on proper fitting parts. I've had seibon on my old wrx with no fitment issues.
