from the pics, it looks to be bretty damn high quality. is it stiff enough not to flex under daily driving?
it looks good on your black xB.

I'm wondering, how well does the carbon fiber do for noise insulation, as opposed to the normal metal one?

I can sell the hood at an introductory price of $400. I highly suggest hood pins for safety because this hood is very light weight, even with use of the factory latch. This hood is the 1st one made by my manufacturer.

Any chance of making one "Vis Invader"-style? Or anything with a scoop. Nearly all stock hoods look like crap without a scoop.

I don't know if it's because of a picture... But, the fitment doesn't look that great...

It looks like they laid the carbon fiber over the steel hood.

I have to disagree with that statement. I used to sell bodykits and hoods and every hood i did had an OEM fit.

why do you have to diagree? The picture is right there and it looks good to me. Are you really that picky about an aftermarket hood?
