personally, i think the OEM would look the best.
if you have the JDM front end, i really like the mugen hood as well.

whatever hood you get, it's not going to fit perfectly. My fiberimages fits like ****. Make sure you get hood pins.

the best CF hood(quality-wise) Ive seen thusfar is the Kaminari hood. Not for the ITR, but for my friends WRX. The hood is absolutely flawless, and fit perfectly with no modifications or tweaking of the hood latches. Of course he paid top dolla fo dat shizzle.

my CF hood on the other hand for my ITR, is a POS. The weave sux ***, its flimsy, needs hoodpins, and didnt fit well at all. No idea what brand it is. It is very light though

What I like the best, is what I saw with a JDM fron end and a CF hood. But the hood was painted on the sides and the center raised portion of the hood was loeft open to see the CF. I think it was the nicest setup I have ever seen with a CF/JDM ITR. (ackronyms own)

VIS is probably one of the best cheap show carbon fiber hoods.

The Buddy Club and Spoon hoods are perfect fit, unbelievably perfect fit... but cost way more too!
