Okay I want to see pictures of everyone's car that has a carbon fiber hood cause I'm in the market for one. I just want to see what they look like on the cars since pics of the hoods on the ground don't make me want one very much.

Right now I have found these two with images...
Seibon

Anyways, thanks all who post! It will really help me. ^_^

get VIS you can't really ask for a better quality hood IMO.

I already did but I didn't get very many good images. A few but even then no name of what hood. I want to know what they are. I can't really buy something if I don't know what it is. = / I did look up and find carbon fiber hatch images which I am considering. My bf likes the Seibon one with the big thing in the middle but I was told they are only soso in quality. I want something light and functional.

Can you feel a difference at all in the weight? I plan to remove my back seats and put in a 12 point roll cage and add a front strut bar after I get my ITR engine swapped in.
