I went to go look at an OEM seibon hood today and it was "greenish". What brand CF hood is not "greenish" but a true CF ?

Maybe you need to direct this towards a CF vendor like Evo Jay.

sounds like you looked at a used old style Seibon hood. No reputable hoods are going to "yellow"or "green" on you, because almost everyone uses UV clear coat. If your really worried about it just add a new clear when you get it and you'll be set.

No, not brand new. Used Seibon.

If you want a true CF you will have to fork over more than $400-900 which is CF overlayed fiberglass hoods

When I got mine I had some extra clearcoats put on it and had the underneath painted.
