i know someone who has one and the thing i dont like about them is that the carbon doesnt go all the way to the edge of the hood.

HatchVX has one, it looks just fine and is plenty strong enough.

It looked like the CF went to the edge to me. :dunno:

JDMsh!t Carbon Fiber OEM Style Hoods V2

Rolled Edges
Ultra-Strong Hood Latch
Double-Sided Carbon Fiber
1-Piece Design
Grade AA High Gloss Finish

*All hoods come with pre-drilled windshield washer holes, cut to exact fit
I called them today, and they told me that the same people as VIS make their hoods. they said its VIS without the name.

hmm.....the g2 integras dont have washer holes on the hoods. they wont be dumb and drill me some holes, will they?
