Is ebay the only place im going to find a Cf Oem replacement hood for the tII?

You can probably look at Siebon

search around, i have seen them, there very costly though, but you can find them

Carbon Creations also has the factory style FC CF hood as well.

thanks I really appreciate it.

Just a tip on the ebay hoods. To get a real %100 carbon fiber hood would cost twice as much in materials to make than a fiberglass hood with one layer of carbon fiber on top which is what is normally done. So if it's under $1,000 it's not %100 carbon fiber. Also unless they graft the factory metal support mesh to the bottom of the hood it's nearly impossible to get it to use the factory hinges and latch.
