Versus should still make 'em, one or double sided cf hoods, they don't list 'em on their site though so you'll have to call and inquire. They are based in Cali so if you are local even better, they'll hook you up! I believe the local price is $650 for the double sided one, at least that's what I heard!

The only way I'd get a CF hood is if it yeilded a 15lb decrease or more.

Umm... what does a 15lb weight reduction get you?...
Let's be real here... It's an aestetic mod. That's OK, but it is what it is.

I'd take one if I could find one too.

True, true... USSI has one and they are from versus... You do have to call...

I was just worried about how long the hood will last without scrathing or dulling up.... If you car is out in the beaten sun all god dam day, i have seen some that only look good for about a year due to fading.....

You have to be real careful with them,,,,, BUT they do look damn good....

Call Versus
