I just ordered the second WS6 carbon hood on tuesday to replace the one that was ruined in my accident 3 weeks ago. I can't wait to get my car fixed and pop it on! Wes was very nice to deal with over at RK... Wes actually sent me pics of your hood being made. VERY SWEET

Here are some more pics from today - this time in the sunlight so you can see the CF. I've been waiting to wash it until the paint sets up.

I'm glad you posted these pics. A friend of mine was telling me to do the same thing several months ago, only with a solid CF hood. I like this idea better though.

imo the nostril screens look cheap. to go with that BADASS hood, there were some billet honeycomb inserts posted a week or 2 back that would be perfect

I think it looks pimp... I don't think it would look too good on a car with a light color, though.

I'd like to have that, except have the Anniv. stripe kit in CF(paint the rest) instead of the whole nostril, although I do like the looks of that too.

That is exactly what I was going to reccomend.

30th stripes in CF as well as blackbird striipes would be nice on a dark black/nbm car.
