Need help w/ Carbon Fiber hood purchase

I am looking for a good CF hood and tried searching the forums and didn't find what I was looking for. I want to find a good quality hood for under $400 shipped.
http://www.streetstyler.com/ABSDYNAM...FiberHoods.htm

I saw the ABS Dynamics hood but is it one of those rip off fake carbon fiber hood or should I go with Siebon or VIS?
I want the OEM Carbon Fiber hood and will be utilizing hood pins

ABS Price: $400 Shipped
VIS Price: $545 Shipped
Siebon Price: $350 unknown on shipping
All these hoods are at streetstyler.com so if you guys can throw me some other sites with cheaper prices that would be awesome or something I can pick up in Texas so I can bypass the shipping charge.

Thanks for the help!
