What brand and why?

Which has best fitment?

Put whatever you can get your hands on. Keep in mind most of them are actually fiberglass with an outer carbon layer to keep costs down.

Seibon and VIS are not as high quality. They have QC issues. You should NOT have any issues with fitment or quality with Slek or Revozport

I don't have any fitment issues with my Seibon hood. Fits great, doesn't weigh much and looks badass.

No matter what you do, be prepared to fit additional latches. Carbon hoods flex, so the factory latch isn't enough.
