I just put on a carbon fiber hood for the MR2, well its not perfect. Kinda disappointed and bulges on the right side and this and that. What im wondering is does carbon fiber "settle?" If perhaps the sun will heat it up and it'll kinda fit better? I was just curious i really dont kno much about carbon fiber.

I got a VIS hood on EBAY. (so who knows if its really VIS or just the sticker put on it) Fit great, but the weave was **** due to stretching and snags. I had to have it custom painted, which turned out looking great cause we found a design that covered up all the bad parts. (I'll put pics up soon).

I do not recommend buying carbon fiber hoods from EBAY, the guy selling them out of LA is really shaddy. He keeps changing his name cause EBAY keeps kicking him off, but he is selling them around 350 plus shipping. Just a lil warning.
