Well got some good news at least.
The hood will now only cost me $200. The seller agreed on a partial refund since this was the last hood in stock.
Not a bad deal at all.

Perhaps could touch it up some so it's not blatantly obvious, at least you were able to get a sizeable refund.

yeah, might get a hood spoiler to cover it up or some vinyl.
all in all, not the worse thing to ever happen.
and I was quite surprised at the refund as well. I went in expecting the typical, "not my problem, call and blame the shipping company" response but this guy was pretty cool.

fitted and installed. the crack isn't too noticable. although the dirty bumper is. hahaha. if weather is good this weekend I'll pull her out and give her a good wash and actually get some real photos up.

Looking good with that CF hood!

The CF hood is so much more "subtle" on a dark colored car.
It looks awesome, despite the damage. Luckily its not super noticeable!

It's really subtle on a black or dark grey car.
2001 Miata LS 5-speed
thanks guys.
yeah it seems like the only carbon fiber hoods I see are on white, red, or black cars.
I'm glad it's subtle. all the little things I've done to my celi are a bit subtle (aside from the red drums, I was fresh outta high school at the time lol)
Can't wait to see it in the sun though. then we'll get a good look of how it blends in or not. ?

Tires should be like this: >>>>TIRES>>>>

What kind of an exhaust are you going to go with? I've been thinking about apexi ws2. I don't like the fart can sounding exhausts so that kinda eliminated 99%.
If you don't want your car to sound like a bumbled bee you'll want a muffler with baffles. So far I've liked Magnaflow's XL line, their only baffled muffler, as it's what my brother used on his 2.0T Genesis Coupe and the 5.9 Durango and both sound really good. The Genesis especially surprised me as it's deep and rumbly with no rasp at all, which I imagine the turbo helps out a little there in that regard. Flowmaster, FlowTech/Hooker, and Thrush/Dynomax are others that offer baffled mufflers.

I'll have to check out that xl line. The ws2 isn't cheap haha. It's 280ish for an axle back.

I've got backup tires/rims so it's not THAT much of a priority. but it would be nice to get the 7th gen rims back on.

Welcome to the exquisite Greddy SP club!
If you like a quiet and muffled exhaust tone, it won't disappoint.

Did you polished and wax you Celica? Cause its looking good!
Rare JDM Dealer Option Parking(Proximitiy) Senor for salehttp://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=97051
nope! it's literally been sitting in the garage all winter. crud and dust building up on it.
I literally just pulled it out and brushed off the crud.
the camera and weather just makes it look like that. it's pretty bad in person.

Jesus man, those tires. I'd have just GIVEN you my old noisy tires off the Celica if you'd wanted them. I gave Joe my old brakes for his Corolla :lol:. Every time I upgrade stuff I have little to no use for the old stuff, so it either just sits and collects dust or gets thrown out.
