Question Best CF Hood style for Sedan?

Hi, I want to get a carbon fiber hood for my 02 Sedan. I want opinions as to which style would look best on a sedan and would also minimize air restriction (being more aero dynamic)?

I am thinking about the Evo style. What do you think?

uhhh...unless you're pushing over 250 or more whp aerodynamics is a bunch of gibberish for our cars, however, if you have a 4dr and would like to go for looks I would suggest the oem cf hood.

I have the Fiber Images M3 style hood with hood vent on my 2k2 sedan. Had to order the vent insert from BMW and it doesn't quite fit right, slight bulge in middle. Wish I had pics. I like it though. Can't beat FI quality and the vent actually works. At a stop when the radiator fan turns on you can feel the hot air escaping. Course if you have a CAI this is prolly not needed.

Thanks guys, I have ordered the SF turbo kit, that I should be getting in a month or so now. Thats why I wanted something aero dynamic. But at the same time I want it to look good!

depends on your body kit i say, if your car is simple oem looks best but if you got a body kit thats a little flashy or whatever the invader looks really good.
