Best Hood?

Need some help deciding on a hood and sides to go with a Greddy front. Car is black and all will be painted even if its CF. Looking to go with M45 wheels as well.

Thanks for the tips....

There are only a few decent hoods for the G35. I like the Seibon Ts, but seems to be getting over played a bit. The Seibon JS is also nice and would probably be my choice. If you have the money, look at the Asuka or Chargespeed hoods. They are more expensive but the quality is top notch.

this one looks sick if you paint it and leave the vents carbon fiber, gives it a classy look with some aggressiveness

I agree. I like the agressive look of that hood. Esp with the vents being left CF.

problem is that the rear vent is right over the battery box. doesnt take much to leak water right onto your ecu and short it out. I'd def leave the rain guard on in that vent

i have that hood and it really isn't as much as an issue as you think it would be, as long as you have everything fastened down and sealed correctly you will have no issues. oh and not driving in the rain helps
