It is like saying there is no difference between cast and forged wheels.

I saw a dry carbon fiber vented hood for a S2000 the other day that was being sold at the shop for $3200 or so. I can't believe the S2000 guys would ever pay that much.

Hope this helps.
I think there is a difference between a hood, a roof, and a piece that goes below the car in the back and is largely for show.

If you want the absolute best, there is no question that the Vorsteiner is a great piece. But I can see those who just want a 1x1 weave that just looks decent.
