I have a blue 09 R3 package RX-8....which sadly just got ~$7500 worth of hail damage done to it. (was parked at the top of a parking ramp and we were forced to go to the basement for a tornado, so I couldn't move it....) and now the hood, roof, and trunk need replaced...

I am trying to find the AutoExe SE-03 hood, and have not had much luck. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good place to look for it?
This is the hood I am looking for: (see attachment at bottom)



The other option that I have found is the Seibon TS style hood, which i saw on RX8pwnage's car in the following forum: https://www.rx8club.com/series-ii-ex...-front-198497/

here is the picture i saw in that forum---of his car:


I have found that hood for sale here: TS-style carbon fiber hood for 2004-2010 Mazda RX8


If anyone might be able to point me in a direction of a good price for that AutoExe hood, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

trigger: check with Paul over at Mazmart, he's an Auto Exe distributor for the US

keep in mind: Seibon = Replica.
not exactly on the same level as Auto Exe

Thanks for the help Jedi, I sent him a message.

I would prefer the AutoExe one, it just depends on how hard it is to get it!

Are there any other hoods that you would recommend taking a look at? I have looked around on the forums quite a bit, but haven't particularly seen anything else I like.

well, I am a bit partial to Varis.

That looks alot like the Seibon one. Is Seibon's a copy of Varis?
