Question CF Hood question.

Who makes the best CF hood for the B5? I had a few 240s in the past and put a SIBON hood on one of them. I was not pleased with the fitment. Hood latch was not the right hight, I had to all most sit on the hid to get it to lock down. Also the screw holes where the levers met the hood sucked! I was like screwing into plastic and i had to shim one of them to get it to tighten down.

So SIBON is out, what about VIS, or is there another company that makes a better hood?

VIS tends to be on/off on the fitment. Fiber Images makes a non vented hood which is of good quality. Vorsteiner makes hoods for the B5 but they are not cheap. If you want prices let me know.
