OEM Style? go with the VIS. great hoods great fit and finish.
vented go with the Msport or something. (gonna be FRP and pricey though) the vis vented hood is still a great hood but the vent sits too far forward to do anything but make people go "ooh vented"

Be careful with VIS though, some people have gotten perfect hoods that have no fit problems at all, and some people have gotten hoods with bubbles in the clear coat and fit like shit.

my VIS hood looks great, I can't say for fitment as I haven't put it on yet, but as far as looks go, it seems to be excellent quality. It has only 1 flaw, and it's a scratch that happened when DHL beat the living crap out of the box (the outer box arrived separate from the inner box... don't ask me how they managed that) :bash:

I hear VIS breaks windshields without hood pins.

I've ran mine for a year and a half no hood pins just factory latch and never seen so much as a flutter out of it.
