From what I could see it looks like they painted it like that and it is not carbon fiber. I may be wrong though maybe they painted the carbon fiber the copper colour on the sides.

I believe it's a CF hood with the edges painted to match. I've seen a silver evo on this board that is the same way (sorta). I think blending the paint into the CF like this looks awesome.

those are gandor mirros, that is a VIS hood and it is CF. I had the same hood, fitment blows but that is another story.

They painted the sides to match the car, like zooracer, kontradictions , uranium9v and a few others have done
