I've only dealt with the Carbon Creations hood, and it fit great. I also like it because of the release agent used. I'm not sure what it is, but VIS and Seibon always creates fish eyes when we clear coat the hoods (and we do that with 99% of them we install). All of them will be slightly off and require some adjustments. It's the nature of the aftermarket, especially when it comes to body panels.

I have Carbon Creations on my 1997 Tiburon, and it's absolutely identical match and fitment to the point where it looks like it came from the Korean assembly.
