actully not true, they probly (sp) made it illegal, cause a stock hood is made to crumble/crush. the whole front of cars are made to crush. take a closer look at your engine bay to see the crush points. the carbon fiber hood will not give. they are plenty of pictures across the web with fucked up cars, and the hood still some what straight, my bouddy owns a tow yard ,and i have seen a couple in there
