No, DC sports isnt a ricer company, its mainly Acura, Honda but they are the biggest name in quality.
Yeah it'll have the same shape but the carbon fiber makes it look 3-D really cool lookin. and you never have to worry about denting, chipped paint, etc. its pretty low maintainence. also a you're gonna be looking at at least $300 to do a normal aluminum hood right. thats good paint, primer, dent removal etc. so for $100 thats nothing.

Well, i say it would look the same becuase if i got a CF hood it WOULD be painted to match the body, no matter what.
Bare CF looks stupid on a painted car, and since im not racing i could care less about the couple ounces the paint would add to the cars overall wieght.
Anyone know what a al hood wieghs anyways? I thought they where close to 15lbs anyways
