Thanks for the compliments guys, the hood cost me $800 and the fitment was a perfect fit (by fiberimages) I got it thru forperformance.com (talk to Ryan)
As far as the bodykit, the frt face and lip is from a 99'Efini and side skirts are wingswest (thru mazdatrix).

I love the look of the car and the wheels. I'm not a fan of the un-painted hood though.

Do you plan on painting it?

I doubt he would have clear coated it if he was going to paint it. I think the natural CF look is cool. If I had a CF hood I wouldn't paint it. I actually had the opportunity to buy one for $500 from the previous owner of the car. He never installed it because it didn't fit with the stock airbox. I liked it but there are better places to put $500. Once those places see their money then maybe it will be CF hood time for me too.

Car looks awesome! Those are the wheels I want, but in gunmetal or bronze, are you getting the carbon fiber caps for the Volk wheels? They will look great with the carbon fiber hood

That thing is sweet. Did you get the wheels from Rishie or someone else? What'd they run ya? Oh and I like the fact that you left the front plate holder on the bumper. It kinda sticks out, but I kinda like it.
