Definitely a first gen. Good price except for the shipping. I wonder how the quality is?

you mean the CF or the shape?

i like the Stock hood myself.. carbon fiber is good for weight reduction though. but then again.. few of us are going to that extreme

i actually sent a message saying that the hood didnt look like the right one and if they had any other pics of it

their response:
Sorry I do not have any other picture. The pictures were provided by the factory.

Im pretty sure thats the same one i bought. The quality is good but it takes a bit of work to get it just right. i still have a bit of a gap on my driver side on mine that'll get fixed when my car gets painted. other than that it is great. and i paid the same price. although my shipping price to canada was ridiculous, dont ask.

I decided on this one when i could find any others anywhere.

yup its the same one, and the same seller.
