assuming thats the only difference but any of them will fit on a 95-05 cav. personally i would never order a cf lid. i have never seen one fit right. they always have a corner that sticks up and never sits flush

It will fit 95-05 Nut from what i gather, the tail lights wont match up right.

i dont understand what you mean by tails not matching up right? you mean lining up from the outside and inner tails? the tails will fit any any 3rd gen cav.

i know that the jsp and vis have fitment problems w/ their lids and they dont sit correctly when its closed, this is why i have yet to order one. i know classglass makes a cf lid but its fully shaved

I think what he's talking about is the corners toward the rear glass. Most Carbon Trunks don't space correctly, which can easily be fixed when they're being attached to the rear trunk bracket.

You need to take out spacers that are on those brackets otherwise the trunk will sit too high, or you can add washers if the trunk sits too low. Either way, go with VIS they have Grade-A carbon fiber and shipping times aren't bad assuming they have it in stock.

I could probably get you a rockin' deal, send me an email!

biggest prob with my trunk is that the top corners (by the rear window) curve down, but i'm gonna put little rubber bumpers under them and that should push them up.....that and for some reason 1 inner tail lines up right, but the other inner tail is a little off from the outer.
