Hey fellers,

Im looking to buy a CF hood for the box this holiday season. I have scoured the threads, and I have narrowed my decision down to two: the Seibon SC style, and the Bbist vented hood. The links are below. I know both companies produce some "grade A chit" when it comes to hoods, so I know quality wont be the issue, I just cant decide which one I like better. I know you're gonna say "its up to you dude, its your box" which I totally agree with. I just want some input from fellow Xb'ers. Honestly, the Bbist one is "slightly" my favorite, but my only issue with it is that you won't be able to see the vents until you're right on top of it, i.e. it might just look like a normal CF hood from someone traveling opposite from you down the road. Help me out guys!

c'mon guys.....

 

seibon style thats the one i will put in my box

 

i have seen the seibon style on a box before and it didnt look that great to me. i like the bBist style more

 

1 and 1 !! alright! lol

 

Can you post some side by side pics? That might help.

 

i put some links in there...how do I post pics in the thread without having them on photobucket or something?

 

I like that Bbist one. Different than the usual scoop type.

 

Oh you did! Sorry I guess I can't read. Let me help ya.

I like the seibon myself...


whats the price diff?

 

I like the seibon one too.
It just looks more aggressive when someone sees you in their rear view mirror.

 

still tied up, 4:4...I figured this would be how it went down! I also have this thread on ClubXB.com, and its panning out the same way...I am leaning toward the Bbist, but I would LOVE if one of you guys had a pic of the Seibon SC actually installed on a box....oh.and they are priced about the same, so thats not an issue....maybe the dciding factor would be if a local shop around greenville, sc could get one....bad part is, is that i dont know of any shops, and if I did, what ever shop had which ever hood, that would probably decide for me....I guess what Im trying to say is that if I had to pay shipping for one (more than likely) and didn't for the other one, Id go with the one I could just go pick up....

 

im also looking to get the bbist for christmas.......its just something about that hood that just makes it look phat and exclusive!
