Default Finally, Got my Kaminari Carbon Fiber Hood(PICS)

Been searching long and hard for this one because Kaminari is no longer making this hood in carbon fiber finish. Got it used in excellent condition. I like it more than my VIS hood I sported for a while .

That hood is very ferrari-esque. I'd paint it and leave the "entrance" part of the ram air portion cf. That would be unique and super mean.

Nice job either way--now lets see pics of your iForged's!

Fitment is excellent! I heard there were fitment issues a while back, that's what kept me from getting this hood. They obviously fixed those issues .

Default Kaminari Hood

Aftermarket plenums do not work with this hood. ( I should probably say the Crawford Plenum doesn't fit)

your car would look badass if you got a carbon fiber v1 lip and paint it the same way as you did with the one you have on it now.
