Yay or Nay? W204 CF IMP Glass Hood
Anyone have any experience with this hood or know anything about it? I was shopping around and came across this Hood. It's personally growing on me. I would paint the hood to match etc.

I would have a concern with the clear insert....how would it hold up to the heat and sun? I suspect that it would "yellow" or haze in some way, much like some headlights do.

I'd like to see it color-matched on a W204. I think it looks mean on a wide-bodied W205, but I'm not sold on the look for our cars. And those vents are terrible.

I agree on the paint match. I looked all over the internet and could only find a W205 with paint match for this hood. And I only found two W204s with this hood thus far both leaving it all CF.

Agreed. It has that on the fence look for me. Doesn't look great enough for me to want to get it, but doesn't look sh*tty enough for me to hate it lol.
