I can't find any company that sells this, but I know they are out there... any one have a connect/website, or something?? I'm looking for an OEM silver weave CF hood. Local would be outstanding, though I doubt it.

That one will be a hard find, you'd probably have to get one custom made. I had a CF hood for mine about a year ago and its hard to find one with a good fitment.

I had the VIS hood, the oem fitment wasnt perfect but it was decent. I hit 140mph with mine and heard a good amount of rattling from the hood and if your looking to drop weight from the oem hood don't waste your money because it is only about a 5lb difference.

Looks pretty good from those pics man,

we are goin for looks mainly w/ the CF hood, and it will be on a silver car so I'm thinking if I cant find the silver weave to get the OEM style and paint the sides silver along the body lines to match up.. did you get it local? what did you pay for that? (if you dont mind asking)

Dont mind at all, I paid about $600 shipped, bought it off of ebay from a reputable company. The quality was pretty good but from the first picture you can see how bad the fitment was around the headlights. I hear seibon hoods are pretty good though

thinkfast, i've seen the silver weave oem style hood on a silver G35, it looks sick, it was however custom done i think by Varis. probably cost an arm and a leg.

is this your g35?
