Motorsport Concepts off of 73rd & Washington does all of my work for me, they do some serious custom stuff and were the only people I spoke with that were confident working with carbon fiber. Talk to Jarrod (owner) 303/286-9498 and let him know Greg referred you!

Generally, i think carbon fiber hoods are a waste of money and rice within themself. I found it funny when you said the accolade was too ricey for you, but I think your hood is an exception to this. I hate carbon fiber hoods on a car that should be one color, kinda reminds me of unprimered hoods from people who paint their car but leave a portion unpainted due to money constraints. If it were me, id save the 700-xxxx and paint the hood a blackish color, same effect, less money. Anyhow, it looks good in my book.

I think it was around $15 shipped for the front and rears shipped, they are kinda a pain to put on but make a big impression in my opinion.

Great minds think alike! I'm digging the hood. I've had mine painted like that for about a year, and I must have caused at least 50 cases of whiplash from people checking it out! Looks hot on the red. I'm upgrading to the Kaminari hood, and I'm going with the same paint scheme. Looks Hot!!!

I don't know if it's possible, but you should look into doing the roof with a carbon fiber overlay to match the hood and trunk. Just a suggestion because I think it would look SICK plus it would make your car very unique keeping the carbon fiber look down the top of the car. Nice work bro!

The stickers are overlays that sit on the stock badging, you do not have to remove the batch just place the vinyl over top.

Also, yes it is the stock bumper!

That's a great idea, and it would be very unique....I just don't even know where I would find somebody to do that type of work in my area.
