Within one month of installing the hood, it started to wear a hole right through it cracking the paint on the top.
SLP claims it is a perfect replacement for a stock hood, but that is not the case. ECS installed my s/c over a year ago and I have had no issues with the stock hood. One month with the new hood and I have a hole in it. And SLP told me to get lost - not their problem. Won't even respond to emails. The last thing I ever buy from them, thats for sure.
In any case, I feel your pain at the track. Had mine there this weekend and the best time I could get was 12.08, and ECS got my car up to roughly 800 RWHP. As you can guess, much of it was driver errror...

Stunning Car,
I Love The Black, but don't have the patience it it takes to keep them looking that good...
Very Nice....
