no you will need the RK5 for this and we can do that in carbon as well

the RK5 is made for the m112 so the underside would need to be notched for the 2300

the top is all real carbon fiber yes.
Bottom is not.
We can do the bottom in carbon as well but it would be 1349.99 shipped for bottom insert areas to be carbon as well. I would show you pics but there has not been one made yet.

I'm the owner of this hood. It looks great and is real cf on top, the weave is perfect and really glistens in the sun. It fits my a&a blower with room to spare. The bottom comes finished super smooth in flat black.

Fit and finish are top notch. I want to say it fits the same if not better then my stock hood.

Won't provide clearance for blowers? Just curious---what is the purpose of the "high rise"? Am I missing something?

This is same Hi Rise hood we have been selling form RK SPort for years. We have just asked them to make a carbon fiber version. The Hi Rise hood if for someone who wants a hood a little taller than stock to give it a different look.

We have the blower hoods from RK as well int he RK5 which is made for the maggie superchargers and has been for years. We can do them in carbon as well. They WILL NOT fit the 2300 without notching the back of them either as this is due to a change in the design of the 2300

You can get the RK5 which looks like this one below in carbon as well.

Suggestion: post pics from inside the car, focusing on the back of the rise. That's always something to consider when buying the hood, because as the owner, you'll spend the most time looking at it from that angle.

Just want to be sure, the top is a cabon layer, the underside would be a carbon layer, BUT the main construction would be fiberglass?

If thats not the case,and they make a fully carbon hood, how much does the hood weigh?
