Help ID'ing a hood

Hey guys, just picked this up but have no idea the brand. Was wondering if someone recognized it.

Nobody else would know either as your link just shows Many parts and no Specific hood.

Shows a red vented carbon fiber hood when I click the link. I translated the page but there is still no indication of the maker.

looks a lot like an r-magic but the two smaller side vents look different, perhaps a modified r-magic or another company added those vents in to their own design

Only reason im not so sure its an R-magic is the width of the front main vent. It looks substantially thinner to me, the mystery hood has the vent very nearly to the edge of the hood.
R-Magic

Got it home today, it is indeed carbon fiber, very rigid for a non metal hood so thats great. The vents in the rear are rivet on though, they seem to be an addition. Will see if my body dude can get them outta there somehow.
