I'm leaning more and more toward it. I kind of like all the vents if I was to drag race it, but that wouldn't be often. Does anyone know if the VIS hoods have a removable cover under the vent? My 01 Mirage/Lancer VIS hood from years ago had a removable one.

Update: I have installed my pioneer head unit today. Its great and sounds way better than my 5 year old cd player.

personally i prefer the R1 hood more and if i had a choice 5 years ago it would be the one i would have brought but I have a VIS hood on my car and i loved it but i'm tired and bored of it now.so when i'm finnished with my engine swap i'm changing it for the R1 hood.but if i were you i would only go with the R1 hood only if you not planning on adding a bodykit.

The new style projectors with black housing and HID's are installed. The headlights are great. I bought them off the guy on ebay that sells them already hooked up for HID. Everything was plug and play. Very easy to install, if the plugs would connect better. I had to use the old connector for the running lights, reused the bulb socket for turn signal. They also wired the HIDs backwards (positive was negative and the other way around) so had to fix that.

Here are some new pics I just took.
Here is where I mounted my ballast. It wasn't the best place, I'll have to work on it some.
My Pioneer P9800BT
Here is the gauges you can choose on it. I set the color to match the factory gauges
My UB100 and harddrive. Ain't pretty, but better than taking up room in the glove box.
