********Picture********WK29/11. Vorsteiner Carbon Fiber Hood upgrade. Looks very good in my opinion, but quality is not to my expectation. I am so use to Robson Design Carbon Fiber excellent liquid glass finishing and the Vorsteiner Carbon Fiber Hood is not even close to it. A little bit disappointed. I understand of the weight saving for performance parts like the Vorsteiner Carbon Fiber Hood and they try to keep the coat as thin as possible to keep weight to a minimum, the clear coat is rather too thin and result in a orange peel effect because of the carbon fiber and some parts along the edges are not even properly coated, especially on the vented area. Overall acceptable for a performance parts but as a show pcs not there yet.

I properly will sent it back to Singapore Robson Design to do the re-coating of the top coat and have a liquid glass finishing or may be even colour code it. Overall I love the design but not the finishing of the Vorsteiner Carbon Fiber Hood .

The bonnet is still seating a bit too high about 2 to 3mm higher than the edge. The mechanic says it is the lowest it can get and any lower he will need to do some drilling. Anyway I have book my car in to be fitted properly by BMW mechanic. If any drilling is needed it will be warrant by BMW to be on the safe side for me.

Here are some progress picture installing the Vorsteiner Carbon Fiber Hood. Will post better picture after installing the Vorsteiner V-107 22" rims in Gloss Black Finishing.
