I could be wrong but when I was looking at that style hood, if you do not have the cobra bumper there is a huge gap between the top bumper pillars and the hood? The hood does not dip down in the front as much as others.

ditto.

And why pay the extra money for a carbon fiber hood and then paint it?? I think it's dumb, the weight saving ain't gonna matter that much. Just get a nice fiberglass hood if you want to paint it. Saleen has one similar to the 03/04 that's fiberglass.

Yeah but his car was MG and could definitely pull it off. On your car, I think any CF anywhere would just look rice.

No offense.

The hood is nice. Get the same one in glass. It looks sweet.
