That dmax hood is absolutely insane. Is it dmax STYLE or is it an actual dmax?
If its a dmax STYLE then it has to be alot cheaper than the real thing

For those who don't know Texalium isn't Carbon fiber at all. It's actually a fiberglass weave with aluminum covering.

The Dmax hood is the only one like.

I would like to hear how the fitment is on these hoods though.

Smile D-Max Carbon Fiber Hoods

I have heard mixed things from Zilvia.net and other forums about the D-Max Carbon Fiber Hoods and Fiberglass D-Max Hoods. I haven't fitted it in person so unfortunately I can't tell you about the fitment firsthand.

Good news, I can get the D-Max hoods again.. Carstudio USA closed from what I hear, but 5Zigen received all of their D-Max inventory and will continue to distribute the D-Max fiberglass and carbon fiber hoods. So if the hood isn't in stock I can have 5Zigen import one from Japan on their next container.
