make sure you paint your carbon fiber hood to match the car.

the siR 'style' hood, if that's what you are after will fit a USDM front.

forget about other people's opinions about painting over it. it's your car. i did paint over mine though.

Yea, here's my Si-R USDM carbon fiber hood from Fiber Images. Let's not clown the projectors, I've removed them not too long ago.

As far as the hood goes, the only thing I really don't like is the fitment. You can see it's slightly raised, gap on both sides, but overall it works.

If your gonna get a new hood get a vented one, since your gonna be paying all that money why not give it some style.

Wow! Who cares what you think! You are probably the stupidest person I've come across! I could be wrong, but I also think you're a liar. I doubt you have 3.1 million in the bank, that you're a CEO or even that you're 28. I think either your parents bought you an NSX, it's not yours or if you did buy it, the bank will take it back shortly. I assume you're around 18 and wanted to look and feel cool on H-T. Please stop posting on H-T because for some reason every thread you post in gets locked.
Everything you've said=
