Carbon composite parts?

I am a fan of the Seibon TS style which is a pretty standard hood design a lot of companies do, though most suck at it.

Google Image Result for http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp81/JL-Motoring/BMW/DSC_9398.jpg

And these are from Zeto, here.
(Zeto - I hope this is okay to re-post)
