Default Amuse cf hood VS J's cf hood ?!?

Hi there,
I saw the pictures of those two hoods
I think both of the hoods are really nice
But its kinda hard to tell which hood is better..
Personally, i like the amuse cf hood better than the J's cf hood
But its really hard to tell which hood is better by just looking at the picture because i think every angle looks different.
I would also like to ask which Replica of each hood would be better?
and what is the best price that you guys got the Replica's for?
Is there any of those hoods in the Canadian Market?
well thats all of my questoins....which one would you suggest?
sorry for overloading you guys with questions but it would help me decide on which to buy
thanks~

Actually the Amuse is a better hood b/c it is dry carbon fiber. The J's is C/F overlay on fiberglass. Meaning the Amuse is a LOT lighter, at a big $$$$ expense. Not worth it IMO. saving 5 pounds is not worth $2k. Personally I want to get the J's sometime.
As far as replica's go neither one is going to be of better quality than the other. They are both going to have flaws in them b/c you get what you pay for. Really they are not worth it b/c you can get a REAL J's for about $400 more than the replica.

Ya, Bulletproof Automotive has it for 1049.00. Click here to see it The replica is around 600-650 I think. Definately better off spending 400 more if you are going to get it IMO. The fit and finish will be better.
