I am looking for Carbon Fiber parts for my exterior body and interior.
I started off looking for a steering wheel to replace my worn out and dirty stock one. I happened to find a Carbon Fiber Steering wheel so here begins my Carbon Fiber Theme on the car. Great for lightening up the car, I wonder how much weight I can cut by using CF body panels all around the car.
I am looking at the VIS GTR hood at the moment. It is $1100 on Ebay but was wondering if any members have found this hood for cheaper.Does it fit well and line up?? I am not spending over $1000 on a hood that dosen't fit properly.
Are the Sedan hoods the only ones that will fit>?

What is the difference with the coupe parts?

Is the difference between coupe and sedan have to do with the signal area on the fenders? Is the coupe hood longer?

Any pictures of CF 318Ti?

Here is the picture of the hood I am thinking of.
