Carbon hood came in! Fitment is great 9.5/10 but quality leaves something to be desired. Quite a few defects. Love it nonetheless!

Installed it myself with lots of towels and pillows for protection lol

My reflective-vinyl-brake-caliper-decal experiment is in full effect. I used my Cri-cut machine to size and cut the decals from a OEM decal. Took me a bit to get it sized properly, but it got done. Doing a trial run...one side in white and the other in red. Actually doesn't look too bad. Hard to get a good pic to show the reflective properties, when light hits it, but they're definitely more pronounced than the OEM decals.
(last 2 pics are the red in normal and with a flashlight on it)

Nice!! So cool that you cut your own, makes it easy to change it up if you want to. I like the red on black!

Looks really good, nice mod. Imo the carbon fiber roof makes it look even better than the glass roof. As for the defects, only you will know.

This did not go easy. (But to be clear: that’s a BMW factory filter, not a Toyota).

This is why the proper torque or hand tightened, is a thing!

congrats on the new hood and install. Looks great! Would love to see pics of the inside if you ever feel like sharing. Specifically any detailed shots about where it connects. The mounting points and any other parts. Hood latch etc. super excited for you! Car is looking dialed in!
