I was going to get the dgmotorsports hood, kind of low on mod money at the moment. But I think $1200 is about right for a CF hood. If I dont paint it, which I wont, Id save money on that anyway.

Quote from their site

Meticulously hand-crafted, the DGM carbon fiber hood is made from flawless 6K carbon fiber and only the best high temperature materials throughout. Every hood has a show car quality fit and finish, and has a completely finished undertray. In other words, we don't stop at the outside when it comes to the quality of our hoods - the underside is just as impressive as the exterior. DGM’s carbon fiber hoods come complete with factory style hardware, and are ready to bolt on, no hood pins needed! Every hood is sealed with a UV protective gelcoat, and need no additional clearcoat. Experience the unmatched quality of DGM carbon fiber hoods - simply the best in the business! Sure, you could find one for less, but why settle?

Designer: David Green
Manufacturer: DG Motorsports

Materials: 100% Real Carbon Fiber
Availability: Special order, allow 7-10 days for shipping

1200 for a full out carbon fiber hood is not too bad. I would pick one up if I had the money.
