Has anyone got one on their car?

I'm thinking of getting one from unique auto sports for my 180.

Has anyone got photos? I've got one of just the bonnet, but has anyone got one with how it looks actually on a car? My car's RED... thinking black bonnet and some white racing mags...

i saw one yesterday - (a white 180sx with carbon fibre bonnet). 1i noted that it doesn't sit properly on the car (lifted on edges/corners). if i have one, i will be concerned leaving my car in a car-park - it's too attractive to scratch on, being different from the rest of the cars you normally see. weight-wise, i did not notice significant weight reduction with the standard bonnet. too pricey - apparently the dude bought it for $900.00 which is hard to justify - i would rather spend the money on other performance stuff.

i would rather install a nismo front-bar. someone is selling it for $380.00 unpainted (i do't know if it is a copy or original - how would i know)? is it reasonable price? (sorry to hijack the post dudes).
