OEM carbon fiber hood...

ok.. since i got into the accident i got $$$ 3,238.00 to fix it.. holy shit right...gonna save alot since i'm doing it myself.

i'm gonna get a carbon hood and paint it red..except for the top part that has the body line that goes across the whole hood, i'm going to leave carbon... anyways i'm looking for a hood with NO washer sprayer holes.. i know they make them, just cant find it, wondering if anyone has one and could tell me where to find one.... thanks guys..

So you are taping off the flat part near the windscreen and leaving that CF?

I got mine from Deft Racing and it came with no washer holes. It was also perfect. Strong too. It's been running without hold down pins for 2 years now.

Here is a link.

Why does it suck....because if you just don't like how it looks on the car... well I might know some one who would take it off your hands.

Lol the clearcoat fogged up on it so I spent three days re-surfacing it and it still looks like shit.

Also the dueschbag who sold me the car lost the hood pins and I i figured it was ok since it has the stock hood latch so on the way home from getting the car I pulled it in 4th gear to test it out and the fucking hood ended up on my windshield. It broke of a piece of the drivers side corner. It's livable but it still sucks.

I didn't realize they weren't on until the hood was on my window. I should have said I was surprised that the hood latch didn't catch it.
