On the matte stuff. They make real "dry" products as well. There was thread on here awhile back about it. I think Intense carries them. Much more expensive than the matte or wet.

A member of a local forum has this seibon cf hood painted except the vents, with a nice touch of fading paint.

Install issues?

I'm wanting in the worst way to put on a CF hood and save all that weight, but I'm a little freaked by all the disclaimers stating "This will NOT be a direct fit". Does anyone have advice on the ease of installation of different brands? At $750 counting shipping, I don't want to have to shell out for installation.
