You'll hardly notice that it is CF. A CF hood on any car looks good.

Who makes that hood? I used to have this cheap carbon fiber hood that I got for $350. The driver side wasn't flush it was 1/2 inch too high. Then the cheap clear coat was chipping away after a few months. And finally the weaving wasn't even in certain areas. Are fiber images hoods like this too?

Blackacker: i haven't put the pins on yet. they were long, and were hitting something underneath the hole. I haven't had time to cut them. I'm sure i won't be doing it anytime soon either, because it's time (weather wise) to put the stock one on.

later

That's the only reason why we like the hoods...if it was anything else that disupted the look of an all-black car like that, we'd say "oh, doesnt look right". It looks like a dark primer to me on a black car. it really only looks good on a white R w/JDM front, although Im not a big fan of JDM fronts.
