The design of e90 cf hood doesn't look right for it. You many have to repaint part of the hood like Hartge design to make it look good.

Seibon's CF hoods have a fiber glass core and the twil of their hoods is 2x2

Painting the sides of the hood to match the pillar would be a great idea.

oh and the hood is 1/3 lighter than stock one, took us about 40 mins to install it, the hood is not only for look, also weight saving, very nicely made.
shaving off weight also save you gas money...

yes! painting the hood "hartage" style, not like they were the first people to do that, but that style would probably make it look 100 times better. anyone wanna photoshop?

I would def go with the cf mirror (if not glue on and if the price is right). The cf hood is too much for my stock looking car.

I don't Seibon is planning on releasing any vented hoods for the E90 in the near future. If anyone is interested VIS will be releasing theirs sometimes in Late SEPT or early OCT.

I have to agree, if the hoods had the vents and the roundel indentation I would have been all over it. The roundel indentation is something important to BMW people. If you have noticed not that many people shave the badges off there BMW's.
