Check out what I just found on clearance:

http://www.erebunicorp.com/accesscustom/toycel94.htm

My money's goin to other things, but maybe someone else will take that?

(maybe 325 isn't great...but the best price I found besides that was 400...)

Ok, here's a dumb question, I heard that it's difficult to paint CF hoods because it's ripply. Is that true, because I'm a big fan of having my car match. biggrin.gif

I have a zyclone cf hood. I'm painting it red. Its not to difficult, all you have to do is lightly sand the hood down prime it, paint it, and clear it.

Im painting mine too eventually. It hasnt starting bubbling or unweaving yet, but when it does, it will immediately be painted.
