Yea if you look at your parking lights there looks to be a gap in between like u would have on an srt4 hood. Maybe its just the way your cars are. I have an 05 so I have on solid headlight and the hood would match the bumper. How are you gonna fit the srt4 bumper if thats a regular neon hood isnt it going to hit since it s like an inch or two longer?

I guess just in case the hood comes flyin up at you on the highway because you didnt put the hood on totally right. So then they say you have to put hood latches on. Yea OK im gonna blow two hole in my 500 dollar hood. RIGht. LOL

Lol yea the ad says 3k 2x2 twill carbon fiber so Im guessing it real. And contagious to me it looks like the gap got a tad bit bigger. Does the hood close all the way with the srt4 bumper on? Cause that would tell me its a tick shorter than stock and thats what im trying to avoid on mine. It will show a lot more since my bumper is suppose to sit flush with the hood. Let me know. Im off to bed its almost 3 on this side. LOL

they say this for legal purposes to cover their A**
Neons,interior lights and even washer LED's all say that because some states you cant have neon,

hood pins they say that because if your going 120 MPH and your hood flies up and you totall your car you cant try to sue...

little aftermarket parts like that are sold for off road purposes but there is no purpose.so luckily they found a loop hole so we can have these products.

holy s**t that thing is ugly IMO.... go with the carbon by design style on their website so go check it out and let us know... its a bit more $ but trust me it looks a lot better plus that CF hood is def. not a name brand and wont last very long at all... it will fade in the sun in a few weeks im betting so yea... wouldn't trust it but thats just me
