which Carbon Fiber Hood?
I'm heavily thinking on installing a Carbon Fiber Hood on my 2009 Base c6 with an Edelbrock eforce Supercharger need to find out which carbon fiber hood its a bolts on for the vette. I will appreciate some pics if possible. Thanks to the forum.

I literally bought the last one from them. They had 10 orders preparing for shipment and 1 person changed their mind and how the stars aligned and I got lucky I have no idea but they sold it to me. The next day it was removed from their site.

I have a Seibon setup. I can't believe they killed it off either. They seemed to have a huge following unless another company went after them for patent infringement on something?
Anyway, fitment was good. I cut some aluminum spacers for the latches to help with fitment but that was a small price to pay for a nice looking hood that's supposed to be functional (Can't confirm until I get my hands on a magnehelic differential pressure gauge but the string method proved promising).

My advice, NOT Carbon Creations.
Got one, and it's now hanging on my wall in the garage, fit like garbage.
The pictures I have don't show the gaps as bad as they are, with the hood lined up with front bumper, and the fender at the windshield.... I could fit my fingers under the gap near the coolant res. Unacceptable.
