In that big pic of the hood it looks like there is a line running across the entire hood from left to right about 6" from the windhield end. Is that the crack you were refering to or is it a flaw in the CF? Or is it just a reflection? I would eventually like to go that route too and plan on leaving 90% of it unpainted (there's a pic of a CF hood with the border painted white in a past post that I liked).
