Seriously...is it too much to ask to get pictures without the watermark obscuring all the details that people WANT to see? Put the watermark in another area of the picture! ok..end rant....

Sorry Dan...it was nothing against Vivid really. Just that many pics of the CF stuff have those watermarks (not just yours but other vendors as well). I understand protecting the Company and IP's. I will shoot you a P.M. with my email so I can get a good look. Thanks!

BTW for those that don't know I have made a few orders from Vivid and their service and response time was top-notch!

We normally put stuff up without watermarks. I have only done it on my 1 series cause of the issue I had.

Well it's a crappy camera phone pic, but I got my CF OEM style hood today. Hopefully I'll get it installed tonight and I should be able to take some pics with a better camera. For now enjoy.

I'll see what I can do. I just went back to work, but I'm going to try to install it tonight and I'll make sure to take more pics. I'm not sure if I'll be able to get it on a scale though.

Good thing you have that legal disclaimer. I thought about a lawsuit for pain and suffering due to that nasty cell phone pic.

can we get a close up pick of the front of the hood? it looks like it doesnt sit very flush against the vents or the headlights. no doubt closer pics would help put my concerns to rest.

+1

I thought I was the only one who noticed that fitment "problem" (not sure if it's just an optical illusion or bad fitment)..can't wait to see close up pictures of the front once the hood is on!

There is no fitment issues. Like any hood, you have to adjust the latch and hinges. Same with the stock hood! What pictures do you need?

We still have the OEM and GTR Hoods instock.
