Carbon Fiber Hood Advise
I am in the maket for a carbon fiber hood, and with so many to choose from, I'm having difficulties selecting one. I want a hood that has finished edges(not cut to shape), uses OEM hood hinges and mounting hardware, fits like OEM, and has an overall nice surface finish. If you have any experience with carbon fiber hoods or know who sells a good quality product, please let me know.

if you have any local shop where you could SEE the hood before purchase i would do that, even the best of them have bad runs, and most shops are not too cool about takign them back
