You are looking at around $500-$1200

Check this link: http://www.motorware.com.au but they seem very expensive ($1200+)

There is one in New Zealand that sells them for ~$AU500/$NZ600

Seems like my best bet is getting the one in NZ...Mines DC2...Right?

Oh sorry my bad, I had a feeling it was DC4 but I remember reading DC2 somewhere...Maybe I just imagined it...

Anyway where can I find these traders :D

As others have said, do a bit of a search through the site. One of the site vendors should be able to help or if not try searching google/ebay. You will be able to find something it is just a question of what sort of quality and price you want to spend/have.

if anyone else has got the CF hood from JDMConcept - i think they will agree the quality is quite aright.

When i looked around for hoods, I was looking at 900-1.2K.

I reckon anything cheaper then 800 u might be questioning quality...ie: the carbon starts to yellow, no UV protection, gets the 'sugary' texture like some Taiwanese carbon hoods.

Shop around. JDMConcept isnt the only place. Good Luck mate. :thumbsup:

shapewise there's no difference between dc2 and dc4. so you can get any exterior part from either car in the same year, it shouldn't matter. so CF hood suited for dc2 will still fit on your car.
