They've had that for a while now, but the rest of the hood has to be painted, the hump is CF.

Yeah, they have had that available for about a year. The part that needs to be painted is the under side of the hood. The engine side which is typical. Hardly anyone has it because they are so expensive.EDIT: Huh! I thought the whole top side of the hood was CF not just the bump in the middle. That's strange!

Hardly anyone has it because they are so expensive.Oh is that how it is, like the JSP hood? Only the top of the JSP hood is CF, the underside is black fiberglass. I thought the "blister" was just the intake hump part of the hood like the pic shows on the website and the rest of the hood was steel or fiberglass or something.... If you look at the link he posted there are 2 pics and the 1 on the right shows the intake part of the hood CF and the rest just gray. That's why I thought that.
