Yes I can seriously make CF hoods. If you saw the shop i have in the basement this would have never been asked, I can even paint cars if nessary. Granted I have yet to make a CF for anyone but I have worked with carbon fiber before and I believe with about 4 hours of experimenting you would have one kickass custom cf hood. See the 4 hours would be to come up with a mold that size. If and when I get my 325i I will make myself a CF hood and possibly (if it looks right) CF break callipers of course they will be covers only.
fyi carbon fiber isn't as hard to work with as you might think. you can pick up small amount of it for 40-50$ and mess around with carboning things.. its cool you should try it. Just remember to get UV protected clear coat otherwise it will break down and go poop after a year or so in the sun.
