Dude, you have a fvcking awesome car, why would you want to take off your custom painted hood and put on a CF one? Save your money and get some other custom work done to your car. I don't know, maybe a full leather reupholstry job or a nice coilover/anti-roll bar kit. Or HIDs. But seriously, a CF hood would NOT look good on your car. It's kickass the way it is.

Rob...I see your selling the same one that Erebuni is selling. Do you know yet how they fit, or what the quality of them are? Were you able to get any other pics from them besides the one that it's in the HP shop? I like that hood alot just by going by the small pic you currently have. I would love to see a close up of the vent. Also, can you the stock hinges and latch, or do you need hood pins for it?

Edit:

One other thing. It says the shipping weight is 110 pounds. How freaking heavy is the hood where as you have all that weight for shipping? :surprised:

I didn't even notice that about the shipping weight. I'll check on that.

As for fitment and everything, Erebuni is VERY uncooperative about that. We'll probably end up ordering one just to see.

Shipping weight is high because they're shipped in wood re-inforced boxes. Kind of a hybrid box/crate.

A hood is also VERY large. Large boxes take up lots of room on trucks/airplanes, so its dimensional weight ends up being 110 pounds so we can charge you more for taking up lots of room on our truck/plane.8D
