I don't know if anyone would be interested, but I want to have the carbon fiber hood in black with my t-red, so I'm thinking of selling my hood. I know most people in the group buy will be, but mine is a little different. I have 2 cossie hood vents painted in the same t-red to match the rest of the car. They're fully functional and actually do keep thing's a bit cooler under the hood. Everyone always asks if you need to worry about rain or snow, but the answer is no. Enough water doesn't get on the filter for it to become a problem. I've parked the car outside since I've had it, through all Michigan weather, and have had 0 problems. The only thing I suggest is putting a plastic bag over the air filter when you are washing the car. (assuming you have an open element, in which case the vents basically make your filter a real CAI) If you're interested, send me a PM. I'll get some pic's if someone is interested.

Sorry I missed this one. The hood and subframe are both hand laid. I might have a pic of the underside later these week. The rain in California is holding things up a bit

Yeah, I live here in So. Cal....the rain sucks, but we need it.

So, the hood has a layer of CF on top, with a layer of hand-laid fiberglass on the bottom of the hood, and a hand-laid fiberglass subframe, correct? Or is the entire hood CF with a fiberglass frame?

The entire hood is carbon fiber. The frame is fiberglass with I believe a layer of carbon over it. Is that clear enough. Are you intrested in the oem hood or the cowl style? Another oem hood is being layed up tonight.

I am interested. I have other obligations first. Will this hood be available after the initial GB?

Im also interested in the cowl hood... It seems that most of the people here are and I know it's been asked about 30 times, but will you have any pictures soon? Where is it at in the process of being made?
