Default Looking for CF hood pics.
I would like to see some pics of Carbon Fiber hoods on Velocity Yellow or any color vettes before I make any decision on which one I get. Thanks

I noticed that my engine is running a little cooler and it also takes half the time to cool down after driving and parking.

CF hood already mounted, I do have a question and please forgive me for my ignorance or lack of knowledge but when you guys close your CF Hoods do you drop it like the factory one or you put it down and push it on each side to get it closed?

I push each side down separately, but I did drop it down once after I got it positioned correctly. How about a pic?
