There really isn't a good source (*that I know of) for getting those two things in CF. As you can tell by the other poster's comments, there have been a few bad group buys and sellers of CF parts around here. Both the customer service and the quality of the products was subpar. Your best bet is to keep an eye out for someone selling the parts you want on here, but that doesn't happen very often. Good luck!

I have a carbon creations OEM hood on my car. The car I picked up already had the hood, so I don't know which vendor he bought it from. Quality is ok, but looks much better after it was re-clear coated. A quick google search will come up with a few leads:
AndyAutosport - TC Sportline Carbon Fiber Hoods
Octane Motorsports - Carbon Creations Carbon Fiber Hood.

this forum has put the double whammy curse on all things carbon fiber. I got a tc sportline hood a while ago from ebay.. they are all from the same mold which is a less than perfect fit.

f*** andy's auto sport, as well as autocarparts.com. Go looking at some reviews of andysautosport, and you'll see why. Heed the warnings you read. They're real and i experienced it firsthand just recently.
I called and verified a part was CURRENTLY IN STOCK. They said they have TWO greddy shift knobs. I called knowing they're NLA from greddy, hoping there's some NOS sitting there, since it's on the site. I placed my order. 3 days later i get a call stating they're NLA. WHAT - THE - f***... i was pissed. I was like, look, i called you motherfuckers FIVE MINUTES before placing an online order, and you said you have TWO of these on the f***ing shelf. Now what? Guy asks if i want "something different" im like NO! I want my money back!
This was a week and a half ago. He said it would take 3 days for a refund.... i'm still waiting.
