Anyone had this BS style hood installed?

Been eyeing this, and wondering if anyone on the boards here has installed it.
http://suncoastcreations.com/a-merc-...-hch41001.html

How is the fitment? I also noticed that the one in the photos has no spot for the Affalterbach hood badge. Anyway, would love to see some pics if anyone has had this installed!

Does anyone know if there are any other options for BS/507 style hoods? Possibly in carbon fiber.

CarbonRevo make the BS/507 style hood in CF but only for facelift models - https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater

I may end up buying the HCH/Suncoast BS hood as I can't seem to find any other options.

Keith (DadsC63) had this hood on his car before he made his CF hood. Im pretty sure the fitment is 100%, looks great in this picture.

I bought my hood from high end hood and had it installed on my car. Had some work to be done for adjustment but result is very nice.

How much work was needed? What sort of adjustment?

I bought mine in fiber glass, but they also do it in CF.

Addition of resin on the left top side, to have a perfect adjustment with the fender, then of course preparation for painting and painting. But at the end I am very happy with the end result.
