Just Received carbon vented hood

Picked it up locally . This is the same hood that stone carbon was selling. Apparently Stone is just a broker. Perfect looking finish. Will post pics after test fit and paint.

Hi, curious as to who bought hood from and what source says that Stone Carbon is a broker rather than manufacture.

hood

Carls had told me he couldn't sell the hood anymore and to contact seibon because they have the only rights to sell it. Seibon doesn't make this hood either. They are playing around with the european car market and it was easier to buy it than to make it. Also from past experience from other industries, when you see pics of products with the companie's name posted all over the pic, they usaully are just a broker. Manufacturers normally have websites. Just like Smartplus says he is the manufacturer, infact a company called Bocca makes it for him. The only fact is that carl couldn't sell the hood anymore.
