I am looking for the carbon fiber hood. Did anyone get around to making one that fits like stock? I am using hood pins so it dont need to have the hinge on the front. Anyone?

No one will make them. I wish I could find someone who'll do it. I've got the flow for mine, but someone said something like we need ten people to get together to do this. There are almost 10,000 people hooked up to this forum and we can't find ten people who want this hood. WTF?

There is one place that makes a CF N/A-like hood for the 2nd-gen, but I've lost the link. They also make CF hoods for MkIII Camrys, MkII MR-2s, and a few other cars. Anyone know who they are?
