Pre-Install Detailed Photos: VRS Cooling Bonnet, VSDC
Had a hard time finding any detailed photos prior to purchase, so I am sharing these for other members that may be interested.
Pros:
Top Finish quality is beautiful
Enhanced cooling
Top notch structural carbon fiber construction
Arrived in one piece
Cons:
Multi-page quality/finish disclaimer relating to imperfections and lack of clear (not a deal breaker, but should probably be disclosed prior to purchase IMO).
Poor packaging (pieces were bubble wrapped and floating around in flimsy over-sized boxes) I highly recommend picking these items up as close to port as possible. The less time in a shipping companies hands, the better. I hate to imagine how the pieces may have arrived in AZ at the mercy of UPS or FedEX
Tabs epoxied on to underside to retain grill inserts are cheesy IMO. I was able to see them from the top of the hood at some angles. I removed these and will come up with something better if I install grills. (I would have ordered my hood without these if I was aware of what they were.
Mesh grill inserts are a little cheesy. While functional, they don't match the quality of the hood.
