I'd be weary of buying older hoods or used ones as many people get them and realize that they don't fit... also, most of the older CF hoods didn't fit properly, although more current versions are better fits.

Depends on which ones. The knock-off JDM 1-piece are, the cool ones from the ATR arent.

You got a fiberimages from SCV motorworks or what?
Does anyone know if there's a CF hood for a 4th gen that has the exact same contours as the stock hood?
