Differences in CF scoops

Hi all,

I was looking to get a CF scoop and saw the HUGE differences in price between vendors. They range from $179 to $399. Why the big price difference, and more importantly, can anyone really tell the difference between the cheap one and the expensive one?

Probably quality.

I know that BFP is known for their carbon fiber perfection.

$200 is about the average price, go for one of the ones priced in middle...

I currently have a BFP scoop on my car and used to have one of the 160 variety before. The BFP piece is lighter has a better looking weave and fit without any modification. The finish is natural without a gloss coating but it looks as if it has one as it is done that well. Can someone looking at the car tell the difference from 10 ft away I doubt it highly. Its all a matter of what you want for your car. I stopped down at BFP on friday to talk about their CAI and some other items on my way to exhibit at the Hot Import Daze show in San Diego and saw that they have several scoops in stock. No promises but if you are interested PM me and MABY I can work a deal for you.
