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.
