It tooak a couple of weeks for the hood and trunk to get to me, but it was well worth the wait.

After alot of scary drilling on the hood and trunk everything that came off the factory parts will go back on the fiber images pieces.

After alot of adjusting the hood fitss pretty good also, but I do have and issue with the hood sitting a little too high by the passengerside headlight. After seeing how perfect the trunk fits I think the hood issue is probably my fault, hopefuly when I give Fiber Images a call they can help me get it perfect.

The weave on both the hood and trunk is absolutly perfect.

After seeing some Cf trunks that fit horribly, I just can't get over how good this trunk fits--It looks like it could have come from the factory.

Overall I'm very happy with the quality of the parts.
 
Whao, nice! So Fiber Images allows you to reinstall stock components from the OEM hood? Never knew that.

What he said. Do you have to drill all the holes for the stock stuff (the i/c ducting, rubber, spoiler and cover)

You have to drill all the holes in the hood yourself. It's not really difficult, but drilling the first couple of holes in an $800 hood was very very scary (nailbyt) . Fiber Images will pre-drill the holes for the spoiler though.

I really liked the look, but what about a cf spoiler to match that trunk...that would be over the top.
 
that looks really good!!! all you need now is the autoexe cf grille

how much weight did your car loose?

so for the ducting, and seals for the hood you have to drill the holes yourself.

but for the trunk all the holes are all predrilled?

That would be cool, but I kind of like the way the stock black breaks up the CF a little.

I'll buy the grill eventually, but after buying the hood/trunk, and the CP-E downpipe, I think I'm done buying mods for at least a couple of weeks........mabey(nailbyt) ??

I think the trunk is about 25 lbs lighter, and the hood is probably about
20lbs lighter. When I get a frontmount ano can get rid of the ducting on the hood it'll probably drop another 20lbs.

You have to drill all the holes in the trunk.

Most of the holes in the trunk are pre-drilled, I think I only had to drill one or two.
