Default CF hood.

I saw that someone here has a stock looking CF hood. Does anyone know how the back of that
hood looks like? Also how is the quality of it and what kind of reinforcement it has on the back side?

You can find the hood on importfan.com. I do think that it requires some cutting for it to fit.

Scott has the stock looking CF hood on his car, his sn on here is T51R. It seems to fit very well from the pics i've seen.

Acleansc has the same hood. Looked pretty clean to me. I think there were some fitment issues though.

They must have a BAD batch that does't fit, why else would they undercut their own prices?

i don't think that's the reason. There are only like 3 people here with CF stuff for the SC's... I think they made a whole bunch and aren't able to sell them because nobody is buying them.

Default Carbon Fiber Hood




One of the members at the NorCal Dynomeet had this hood. It's nice, but it looked like it needed some fitment adjusting

Doesn't the importfan website say that the hood requires cutting to fit correctly? I was going to buy it until I read that. Anyone know for sure?
