Quaility, fit, and finish? Who's the best?

and...

Are they really any lighter than the stock aluminium hood?

Thanks!

well, if you are talking about the Top notch one (and expensive) I will say C-WEST. If you talking about more realistic one is, from TC-spoiler.

anyone know anything about Bodykits NW carbon fiber hood


(heres what I know)"EM Style Replacement Carbon Fiber Hood for your WRX/2.5rs. The scoop is functional and is OEM size. This hood uses your stock mounting hardware and latch. We use a 3k carbon fiber and a Glossy UV Proctected Gel Coat. Fully supported skeleton is used for strength. its made by Bodykits NW"
vendor told me "these hoods are 14 lbs, fiber glass underside, and are not supposed to require hood pins. comes with hood scoop."


www.speedriven.com sells it for (what seems to be low to me) $400...

anyone have any experience with it
