Prepare the vermicelli rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and water until smooth. Adjust consistency with more water if needed for dipping.
Fill a large shallow dish or pan with warm water. Dip one rice paper sheet into the water briefly, about 10-15 seconds, until it is pliable but not too soft. Lay it flat on a clean, damp kitchen towel.
Place a small handful of vermicelli noodles in the center of the rice paper. Layer with a few slices of cucumber, carrot, bell pepper, a couple leaves of mint, and cilantro.
Add about 4-5 pieces of vegan shrimp over the veggies.
Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom. Repeat with the remaining rice paper and fillings.
Serve the summer rolls immediately with the peanut hoisin dipping sauce.
