Never heard of that brand. But I’m also a fan of having carbon pets paint matched. And maybe leaving a little open carbon as a small detail, not much though.

idk about that chassis. But the GD was an aluminum hood. So going to carbon really didn’t make much of a weight difference. It was mostly looks or venting

I don't mind if it goes all the way to a dark grille / headlights like on a GC / Bug or Blob GC, but if there's a grille surround that breaks it up like on the VA or even the Hawk, it just doesn't work for me.

I dig a CF / Kevlar hood on the JDM front ITR, but not the USDM one, for example.

 

It’ll definitely be a cosmetic thing for me. I’ve watched a few YT videos about the MSP offering and the claims regarding fit and finish are generally positive, though there may be some tweaking of the fenders involved.?

 

Fenders? That’s weird. You’d think the tweaking would be on the hood hinges for the gaps to the fenders

 

Attaching a picture of said hood would have been helpful. Personally I can't seem to find the will to pull the trigger on body panel cosmetics. A CF hood at like $2k is so much money for non existent performance is just not worth it to me when I can spend that $2k on something else. I am too hipster, not really a flashy guy, more of a if you know you know type. Discovery is the cool part

The hood definitely looks nice. Idk about fitment or the brand, but if it fits well without quality issues, I say it is pretty good.

 

Yeah, could be. It was just a mention on a YT video I watched. The presenter didn’t go into details, so I don’t know exactly what was involved.

 

I would just go with louvres instead, but have a shop do it if you’re not comfortable with cutting into your hood.

 

Not my car but a very close idea of the hood I’m considering ( it’s even red!!)

 

I think the hood looks good. What bothers me about many of these pieces is the wide panel gaps compared to stock. I linked a Youtube video below, I believe this is the same hood your looking out, he had an issues with the hood strut mount breaking.
