I saw the fitment problems first hand this weekend at NismoFiesta in San Antonio. There were a few 370s with both the CF and Kevlar covers and they all had the same issue:

1. The cooling plate rubs against the hood in 2 spots which scratches the hell out of the plate, and on one of the kevlars, actually caused the plate to crack.

2. The Master Cylinder cover needs to be trimmed back some in the back right corner.. approx. 1/4" to avoid contact with the hood bracket.
