This is an absolutely incredible price for this piece. I paid nearly $2k for mine about 14 months ago. And I can tell you that the fitment of the Vorsteiner piece is better than any aftermarket piece you will find. It is truly beautifully constructed. Probably one of the best mods, IMHO, that I have done. I love to watch the waves of heat ripple the air as they flow out the open vents, and now, I love to hear the grind of my ESS SCer through those same open vents. Ricey? Maybe, but I love it.

Those are the coolest comments I've read about the Vorsteiner hood. I agree it is a gorgeous piece. I've gotta get on the stick in install mine! (Still sitting in a box...bodyshop stuff has been last on my to-do list...)

Absolutely true. A walk in the Park to install. Paint it so it waon't look too ricey.
They look really neat, but the build quality and finish is still not perfect (or up to the standards of the stock bonnet).
No hand-made CF Bonnet or Boot Lid for the Beast will ever look as good as a computerpressed steel Bonnet or Lid. The quality of the Vorsteiner pieces is however outstanding. Nothing else comes close!
