My gtr style hood fits great, about the same space between the hood and the rest of the body as I had with my oem hood. Maybe only a tiny bit more. All CF parts will require some tweaking and a bit of elbow grease to get to fit on perfectly, whether it's seibon, vorsteiner, icarbon, whatever. You won't find a perfectly fitting hood (or trunk) that requires no effort at all to put on. despite this, figment is still great with my hood and the quality of the weave is excellent. I know a couple other people on this forum got the oem style hood and had no problems to speak of.

When you say tweaking what exactly do you mean? WHat are you adjusting to make it fit? Sorry i am a complete newbie at this but i dont understand how you can adjust it to fit? Doesnt it bolt on the the hidges and then how do you adjust it?
