I got the CF hood and colour coded it... apart from the carbon vents! Its much lighter and it actually improves the cars performance too! Feels a little lighter and accelerates better... maybe its psychological? ha ha

I highy doubt the lightness of the hood makes the car faster

Can you post close of of the vents? Can any photoshop the vents painted the same color as the rest of the hood?

Thanks guys.

Ok so
$650 for CF
$390 for FG (Im guessing unpainted)

This is great, cheaper than I thought. Can you please post the contact info of the sales rep, or the website (if there's one). I need to order asap. Thanks.

Yes, I have contacted them, Rocky at OPTION RACING, but unfortunately they r out of vented style ones. I'm checking to see when he thinks the next shipment will be in. Cause I think we can get them around $500 to 550 a piece and if your local, they said u can pick up for free. They are in The City of Industry. I can send u guys pictures of the CF ones he has for I believe $350 plus shipping, without vents. Sorry it's not letting me post the pictures here. Email me at Subwayali@yahoo.com or text me at 916-300-4244.

^Yup, last I checked, they're the source as well. If it's $500, it's probably a no brainer. I wouldn't be surprised if there were at least 10 of us from Socal that would pick it up.
