i would NOT buy anything extreme dimensions/duraflex/carbon creations, they all fit like abosolute junk! as far as carbon fiber is concerned, if you are looking for weight reduction make sure the hood you are paying for is full carbon fiber not just a fiber layer over fiberglass.
where i work we have many people satisfied with seibon carbon fiber products. they seem to make quality products with pretty good fitment that is full 100% carbon fiber. i deal with ED fitment claims all day and not one of their products fit out of the box. it is not minor sanding here and finesse that to fit, its like let me get the sawz-all trim here and fiberglass that, its major work to get that stuff to fit.
i have also delt with RKsport and razzi, they both seem to make quality aftermarket body parts that i would consider putting on my own car. cirvinis also makes nice products but i dont believe they do carbon fiber. you get what you pay for. you buy a cheap hood expect to pay the money you saved or more on body work. you buy a quality expensive hood expect to pay little to non for body work
