Actually Seibon should replicate this, sales would be through the roof for them IMO.

All you need to do that is an OEM CF hood, the template and a Dremel. That's what a member in CA did toward the end of that thread I referenced above. He then painted the hood to match the car.

Painting CF is a sin. {Or should be}.

dremel's small round sanding bit is perfect for the corners. I sanded all the edges once I was done as well.

Yeah, you can simply do this to your OEM hood. Member "veilside z" from UK had his cutom done.









Edit: Just saw the link that has these pics already. Oh well, this is for the lazy folks then...
