Generally I do not like Aftermarket hoods but this is pretty clean. Is this a complete hood or just cut-outs?

Should look great, painted CF with highlights is sweet.

It's a whole hood, they just left the vents CF and painted the rest.

what he said^^ but they do make just the vents, but i do not want to cut into ny stock hood to install them, and they are a different style of vents

I like the painted hood...looks clean matched to the car..

What are the gizmos near the front corners of the hood in the picture in post #10? Look like they may be hold-downs. Are they used in addition to the stock hood release, or is that all there is? What about keeping thieves out of the engine bay?

i agree.. but only on some colors, and depending on how much CF there is on the car..

but i think just a plain CF hood would look odd on a Brickyard.. purple/gray.. ehhh idk

lol.. those gizmos are hood pins

Only black cars car get away with that, the rest just scream RICE. Painted is always better than the mismatched junkyard look.
