Car is really looking great - I love my CF hood - it made a big difference in the appearance of the car.

The CF looks great on the GE. What's the quality of the CF and clear coat? Any bubbling?

To be honest i did see some small bubbling on the hood clear coat but its something that can be fixed...yOu only notice it if you look like 5-6" from the hood..

Only cons, but thats probably the same with other CF Hoods, is that you will need to drill the Square hole for the rod that holds the hood open when you open the hood.. And also you will have to drill to attach the stock stuff attached to the OEM hood (If you want to put it on the CF one.

Thanks for the info. This is an independent guy. Good price, I would expect a little bubbling I suppose. If it came from a company like Seibon of Vis I would expect it to be perfect.

I do not complain about the quality but the shipping company he uses does sucks a lil... My first hood arrived broken badly and this one had a lil Hair line crack on one of the rear corner of the hood...its fixable so i did not complaint or returned the hood...

I do vouch for his customer service..

they way the silver is in ssm allows for white wheels to look more than okay, i think they look really good. Now, I think if I had a CF hood and accents, I'd go with a dark color wheel. But thats just me.
