Sorry, not a fan. Those mustaches just don't look right especially at that overpriced level.

I showed my gurl the pics of the MCR hood and she thinks its Sex! But questions whether or not the car has enough WHP to back it up and not be Rice.

All show and no go?! Any opinions? I have seen several Nismo's with CF hoods. I don't know. I'll have to think this one over.

Very overpriced, but they look great! Since you are ballin, I'd say get the hood!

I think its going to be a GO! Working out the details. Colin @ Bulletproof Automotive is tha man. Would be better to do all the paint at once.

Looks to be an aluminum/fiberglass hood?

Its all fiberglass, there is no metal on it whatsoever except the hood latch

It's not overpriced at all actually IMHO - to me, Seibon is overpriced. This is expensive, but there is a difference between expensive and overpriced.

Have you considered the top secret hood. Not sure if you want to keep it both MCR, but simply in terms of looks, I prefer the top secret.

I haven't seen a good pic of one. None that do it justice! Someone should post up some if they see any installed.

Any Top Secret hood pics that aren't black?
