TS-Style seibon hood or GRA motoring AD9 hood
I'm posting this thread because I'm sure I'm not the only one who loves the look of the AD9 Re-Amemiya hood and wants it for their car,sadly as of posting this they are not producing it. So that being said I am reaching out to see who has dealt with either of the 2 listed in the title,and to get your opinions on what you liked/disliked about either product,if you post thanks for the help,it might help not just me decide on a purchase but someone else later on!

Most aftermarket hoods will fit "OK" and not great, especially copies made from original products. Group A & Shine Auto have decent reputations, and each have their own share of poor customer experiences. Seibon is more of a global manufacturer that creates copies of discontinued products and fit varies.
A couple examples on my car:
No name good, clearly a rep:
Seibon DS Hood (Currently for sale):
Stock, which I went back to for paint because it fit the best and leaves the pronounced wheel arches:

The gra ad9 hood in carbon is excellent. Fitment with the one we had tried on 2 different cars was spot on. First car was stock fenders and 99 bumper and the second car was stock fenders and shine auto mazdaspeed bumper and it fit both excellent. The overall quality of the hood is incredible as well. Its well worth the buy and the wait
