Who makes 507 hood for PFL

Which companies make a PFL version of the 507 hood. I know Modecarbon makes the carbon fiber one. I can't justice paying that much for a hood that I'm going to just repaint. Just looking for different choices to pick from.

I found a few online, but they vary in look compared to the OEM BS hood/bonnet.


I noticed the vents on some are non functional, the hood bulges are not the same etc.

I inquired to Mode Carbon over a year ago about one as well for my PFL, and they said they were in process but couldn't provide photos as their car was a FL but assured it would look the same (minus the front hood line).

I am still interested as well but the price put me off as I would also be painting mine back to stock color and it would become closer to a $4,000 endeavor. Then i couldn't figure out what to do with my stock hood if I pulled the trigger since I live in an apartment and like keeping all my OEM parts, just in case...

if anyone has some pictures of the PFL mode carbon hood, I wouldn't mind seeing them and possibly re-sparking my interest, maybe the price has dropped a bit as well....

Modecarbon does make a PFL one and its to much for me to get in carbon just to paint over with

I hope their site is legit, I know Dad wouldn't let someone use his cars pictures if they weren't.

It really isn't that much, I was quoted $1264.30 shipped to Kansas for a FL version. The only things that worry me would be fitment and how the hood scoops look. They said that would get a photoshoot going but who knows how long that will be.

If you do happen to order one, be sure to do a writeup!

He emailed me back today, almost same price quote as you got. But like you said the only thing that worries me is fitment of the hood. I think the scoops will be fine . Don't see how they could really mess those up unless they aren't aligned right lol I might jump on the deal though since it's the lowest price I've seen on a 507 hood and it being in carbon fiber also.
