Default J's Type S CF hood, 3 styles, anypics?

Guys,

Do you guys have any pics of the 3 different versions of the J's type S hood by chance? Top and "inside" of the hood. I just purchased one and wanted to make sure what I got was correct.

3 versions:

full frp/frp

cf/frp

cf/cf

thanks!

Tell them to get the owner on the phone, if he doesnt want to deal with it then dispute the charges and he can shove the $1k and the whole carbon frp hood up his a$$. Sounds like a certain business owner needs to step down from his perch a little and get his hands dirty again, sounds like its been a while.
**However you need to find some written proof that you were sent the wrong hood. A receipt, anything. Should have gotten it from AJ's

I special ordered a J's full dry cf trunk from A&J Racing(not AJ's fault) and had the same thing happened to me.
I waited 3 months and received a wet carbon lay-up trunk with FRP underside and was like WTF is this!
Apparently J's doesn't make their own aero-parts.
I believe J's has their body kit parts made by First Molding and their wings are made by Voltex.
When a Vendor request to special order a part that J's doesn't have in stock the request is forwarded to First Molding.Information/translation gets lost somewhere in this communication line between the three parties.
I tried to special order it a second time through JHPUSA.JHP submitted my order and we waited 3 months. Sheng(the owner)showed me the email he received 3 months later stating they no longer produce dry carbon parts.
Talk about a slow response on J's behalf
I ended up getting a full refund from both of these vendors and bought an ASM trunk instead
I hope your issue gets resolved
