Default Carbon Fiber Hood for an '08 Scion tc

Hey hey, got a quick question. Im thinking about buying a Carbon fiber hood for my '08 scion tC. As most of you probably know, alot about the '08 and '07 are alot alike. Im wondering, does that include the hood? I dont want to buy a 1K$ hood to just use it as a massive paper-weight. Im gonna call the dealer, but I wanted to get any feedback from you guys.

Thanks!

You should be fine. The body styles haven't changed from year to year.
It's little things that have changed. (Head & Tail lights, MAF location, etc.)

Any year hood should work..I think Seibon has the best fitment and quality.
