As for CF hood, well, I like the way it comes with black and all, but my gf says it is ugly as hell..... so if I buy it one day, it will be body matched.... uurrgg.........

Hey SiVeloz, don' t know if you remember me but I worked for Mark and Serge (XR8edLIdds). I had the black 4dr. I was part of the team that made your silver hood and one piece splitter.

Hope you're enjoying the hood!

$499 Canadian the last time I checked for a stock look CF hod. It was a little bit cheaper than that at one store I went to....ie...Automotive Warehouse.......but I don't know if they still offer it at the lower price anymore.

for me...it would depend on the colour of your car and your car model

than i would think about if carbon fiber hood looks good on my car... if it does than get the carbon fiber hood.

staying with oem... i think this thread is where i got the idea that they can chop your head off, especially since at least three times today people have stopped in the middle of the road and i almost rear-ended one of them
