I have only heard good things about these guys, so im pretty sure the fit will be spot on. Let me have mine fitted and see how good the end result is. I am sure there is a way of shipping it to the US!

Well if it's good i guess we could do a U.S. group buy from the Hong Kong fellas , btw did anyone ever try to organize a group buy of the original vorsteiner hoods ?

I've been looking at them on and off as well. I just haven't been able to pull the trigger on something that expensive without seeing it in person.
I did find a hood that is similar on ebay. It looks pretty good although I wish the vents were carbon fibre and I'm not sure about the silver mesh under the vents. Anybody have any experience with these guys or have seen this on a car?

Will keep everyone posted, but it may be a couple of weeks or so before I get it. It is all made to order....

I had 2 of the actual vorsteiner ones and the fitment was not perfect either..I actually have never seen one that fits perfect...There is always a gap on one side of the hood...It's not horrible but its far from OEM....
