nice. almost had a heart attack on the first few pictures - i was like, tell me that is not a gap in fitment!! i guess your hood was still popped?

hard to tell from the pics but did you get matte or wet finish? looks good. what vendor did you go with?

Getting a CF hood before wheels is not the way I would have gone. The hood is way too aggressive for the wheels and looks a bit out of place.. But when you get some nice wheels it will balance the car out.

Agree w/ Topgear but the hood looks great and fits well. Agressive wheel/tire setup will set that **** off.
