Nope, you're absolutley right. That might be why it looks a lot better then the others!

I have some more pictures of them... I'll get to them later
And you’re right; It looks 100Xs better than the other hood.
The others nose is almost flat at the end of it, but the CF Lip Hood looks better balanced.

Honestly if that was the next SL (if it came with the lip) I think I'd replace ours easily.
