    Pit Road M hood: Know where to find?

    I'm looking for a Pit Road M style hood for a 2nd gen. Can't seem to find authentic or replica. I'd rather get a replica as the real one is very pricey.

    Any suggestions as to where I might be able to find?

    carbonfiberhoods.com does not have this hood in stock anymore and don't know if they ever will.

    Thank you for your time.

    thanks for the link.

    that sucks about the fitment.. i have a a GT300 hood which also had fender gap issues which is why I want a new hood.

    i honestly don't know anyone who runs the pitroad knockoff from chaser; so for all we know, it might not be bad at all.

    I have a Pit Road M CF hood on the car in My signature.
    I would not buy another one as the fit & quality is not that good.
    You will notice that the gap at the front is big enough to fit 10mm LED's

    i had the seibon knockoff for awhile... super thick (heavy) fiberglass layer and it was really flexible. like you could make it flex with one finger. kind of disappointed.

    If you want another option, Matt may still be making these, and anyone who has ever seen my or Iceman's (Scott) hood, will say that the quality is 2nd to none.

    im not a big fan of the seibon. it seems almost counterproductive..

    thanks. i just saw this GCW from a link in the other hood thread. not a huge fan of the air intake duct thing..
    looks good though. just not my style..
