100 (sidejob price) up to 800 or better when they give you excuses. Youll probably need some blending into the fenders.

Black on black would look soo much better imo and hofibertrends has the 2.5 inch rise which looks mean as hell. Either way good choice, but i would of liked to see you go black w/ black.

Thank you sir. Kaenen's quality is top notch. My hood came with a white gel coat on it, but maybe you can talk them into a black gel coat? I don't know if that is possible but it wouldn't hurt since you will wait to get it painted. They opened up the bottom of it and removed the second fiberglass layer so if you want to cut the scoop slots open you can. There is even a little template line that helps you cut.

They are super hard to get a hold of and when I got my hood they only excepted checks. No credit card over the phone so you have to mail them a check. It is worth the wait.

Since you went with the CF hood, when/if you do decide to paint it do it like this:

Yeah pretty close, i was looking at pics of your car and it looks like my car will look EXACTLY (with the bullits and hood) like your old car except black, only if i could get someone to photoshop your old car black and that would be my car ha ha
