I hate how EVERYONE say get the gt4, IMO the ssIII looks soooo much sexier. Go with sum splitters an a OEM CF hood( you can get them from VIS' site or from ebay.

P.S. I luv your cars colour.

As long as the fibers are fine you can just have it repaired.

I'm in the market for a carbon fiber Hood also

I found advancespeedshop has free shipping within the lower 48
I emailed them no reply

Also octane motersports has 30$ shipping to the lower 48
Emailing them tomorrow

And upscale auto 100+$ shipping
Fast email reply
Good Rep also

So I Guess for more money you get more service

Anything that has free shipping on an object that large is questionable.

AGREED. SSIII with a Tom's lip, TRD skirts, and SSIII splitters... omg. That's what I plan for mine

I like the style of the GT-Four, I used to be in love with it. But now I think the SSIII looks more sleek and the GT-Four looks like a rally monster to me. I agree with garin though. I'd love an SSIV with AWD
