Carbon Fibre hood

I am in the market for a carbon fibre hood. I am considering a carbon fibre hood because of its looks and weight reduction. So my question is, what is the best quality hood on the market today? Also is there one that comes predrilled with the holes for the hood pins? If not, how do I go about doing that? I would really hate to mess up a perfectly good carbon fibre hood. Please help Thanks!

IMO...95% for looks, 5% for weight. I just recently bought one. make sure you get another layer of clear coat on the hood before you install it, ill prevent it from turning yellow. good luck with whichever hood u choose.
