I actually found a CF hood for my 328i sedan (mine was dented horribly when a fan shredded) that was 150 bucks cheaper than the OEM hood not to mention the paint cost to paint the OEM. So I could have an OEM (finished) for $800 or a CF that was finished already for $300. What did I do? Left the f-ed up hood on my DD until I can find a parts car. If I was 10 years younger I might have gotten the CF hood.
