Finally got a carbon fiber hood (2010 3dr)
3 years of ownership and one crappy wrap job later and I've finally come across a good deal on a real carbon fiber hood! I had to modify my hood latch bolt holes a bit for extra adjustment to hit the secondary latch but aside from that I was very impressed with the fitment. Hood is OEM style from Carbon Creations

looks good! Do you know the regular price for it?
When I first got my Yaris I was thinking of a carbon hood and then I lifted the hood on the Yaris and it almost flew away...couldn't believe how light that thing is. Although I di like the look of it on your white Yaris

Looks great.
I've always wanted a CF hood, but I think both the Yaris and FR-S OEM hoods are super light already. Plus, I don't want to use hood pins (but I would highly recommend doing so as the latch on the CF hood can break off; I've seen several cars with a messed up windshield/roof because their CF hood flew open). |

Definitely flush mount type. Adds to the aesthetics as well imo. |

Looks great! Best investment for weight reduction in the CF category for me was the back hatch. I can lift and shut it with a pinky.
