OEM CF hood on WB

just installed... fitment isnt great... disapointed... it was made by carbon creations and got it through a vendor off their show car...

here some pics

fitment issue
fairly large gaps on both sides
front is lower then bumper

CF weave is excellent tho...

haha yeah i mostlikely will lose the sticker... came off a show car so it had the sticker on it.. just recieved it today and installed it... tomorrow im going to try and see what i can do about this fitment issue... i have a few ideas i think that will fix it to look better...

those with CF hoods did yours come with a hole for your hood stand? if not what did you guys do to go about in holding your hoods up? i was thinking of tien hood dampers but i dont wanna cut/drill into my hood aswell ive seen pictures where you can see the hood dampers through the side cracks of the hood...

ps thanks deedubb you car looks AWSOME... very inspirational haha
