I don't trust this company.

The display pictures of "their" carbon fiber are misleading. The first car is the Ventross ISF and the 2nd is the 0-60 SEMA ISF (which used Seibon CF).

Basically, they don't have any pics of their own product. Shady.

The picture of their hood is of one our members who totaled his car. I believe he was Badxx33 or something along those lines.
