That does look good, I can't wait to buy the hood and then get it painted.

That's what I get for testing fitting the hood. So I'll be driving around with production number one!

Plus my hood's already done

Thanks You might get yours painted and installed before me though. It'll probably be awhile before I do mine.

I've looked at that spoiler before and was gonna get it but I don't like the fact that it doesn't sit flush with the rest of the rear. You can tell that it's been added on, almost like having fender flares.

And if you look on page 1 of this thread, I posted a pic of that spoiler already.

I wanted to get this hood because I've never liked the boxy look to cowls, does this hood have more of a slope on the side? from the first pic it looks like it does, but the second pic looks like its at a 90 degree angle like cowls

I think I'm too picky but if I wanted it just right I'd have a very slight crease down the middle to match the very slight crease on the nose. The creased hood looks a little overdone... if they can't do that, I'd definately go with the smooth hood over the creased.

That's the spoiler I have on my car. You can see in on the back.

Yeah I know, I spotted it when you first posted the picture of the car and someone asked what kind of spoiler you had and I posted a pic of it on page 1.

Sorry guys - no can do It's not a matter of changing the name or designing them a little more like our own to make them different. The problem comes in with the rest of the car, the rear fenders are different then stock, so are the fronts and the doors. So it would not be a simple task for us - sorry!! I know that we would have several members interested, but sometimes you just can't offer everything (although it would be nice ).
TondSS~ our hoods arrive in a black gelcoat finish, so it comes in a black semigloss finish. It would require painting, however, it is not necessary to paint right away. I cannot promise that our hood would match your paint.

Oh ok, np. I'm still stuck between the two. Is the crease as big as it looks in those pics or is it the angle/light?

It's not that big at all. It's nice because it add's a little to the hood without going overboard.
