    Where can I get a Carbon Fiber hood??

    Who carries these and for how much???? Are they easy to install? do I need a rod to keep it propped up?

              It makes me feel happy inside that it's been down for so long.

                        i agree

                        my freind has a cf vis hood ( not on an e30) and it looks like its starting to crack around the hood latch

                          i dunno what it is about their hoods but both my autobody guy and i both agreed that it was the worst fitting cf hood that we had ever seen for any price...

                            It looks good about 25 feet away...2 feet away and you think someone "left it in the oven" too long...
