Default Carbon Fiber Hoods?

I was just wondering what hoods look as good as the pics below, because along with the weight-savings I want it to look nice too! I don't know how to explain the look of them, but you can see the weave in lighter colours. I think that looks sick

So I guess now it's down to two different hoods. TC Sportline, and Wayson:

It does look good! But now it's getting even harder to narrow it down!

same here... aka my car..





once i get the rubber lining around the bottom of the hood you won't even be able to tell its carbonfiber. I had the paintshop arrange my hood on perfect because usually carbon fiber hoods don't fit as well as stock ones. But mine's really nicely fit... Plus i bought it special with a extra supportive latch so no need for hood pins! IMO :thumbsdown: to them in a lot of cases but there are good looking cars with them..
