$250 shipped anywhere to the lower 48.
This is not a show-quality hood. From SR's first run when ImportTrenz was doing the fab. CF skin over FG skeleton; blemishes. You will need to adjust your hood latch and use pins to make it fit.
Weighs 16 pounds- great racing part.

tibby01-
Fitment takes a bit of tweaking once installed. There will be a gap over the brights of about a quarter-inch; with pins and mod to the latch, the rest of the front lip will sit flush. I removed the main spring from my hood latch to get the catch to drop far enough, but you can loosen & lower the whole latch assembly and get the same results. Along the fender lines, there will be [up to] a half-inch gap in some spots; I compensated for this by adding some foam weather-stripping to the underside edges of the hood (Home Depot, $5). Not sure if you have a strut brace, but I've left a strip of the foam on the portion of the hood that comes in contact with it on my car.
No, I'm no longer in VA...seems like you were hinting at local pickup to save on shipping...don't think you'd fancy a drive down to North Alabama?
btw- I noticed a few pics missing from my photobucket album...I'll add them in a bit...

tibby01 i have this hood it will fit nice if you modify the latch a bit i drilled out a lil lower on the holes to let the assembly drop down more also welded some washers onto the latch assembly to make it stronger there are some pics on my cardomain page but if u look at all the pics he has u can get some good side views....
ps i have small blems where the shell is attached every little place that the hood is bonded to the the supports, and i have seen two other hoods like mine and they all seem to have it to not real noticible unless ur up on lookin for them
i also dont have hood pins in it
