hey guys, i attended the Sema show this year and it was a great outcome! At first, i didn't care for the carbon fiber hoods, but after getting up close and checking some out, i really like them. I have a 07 vista blue gt, its got basic bolt ons, lowered on 20's now.
My question to you is how would a 2 inch carbon fiber cowl look? My future plans are to build some custom 3 piece wheels (yes it rocks being a machinist/designer), gt500 front and rear fasicas, and anything else in between i can cut out on the cnc's...which is pretty much limitless.

thanks for your opinions!

Does it have the carbon fiber look or is painted to match? Personally I think the carbon fiber look is to ricey. The only advantage to the carbon fiber hood is weight, IMHO.
