STi OEM hood material?
I have tried searching this and have come up with mixed reviews on here and google...
also asking the question cause i had my CF hood for sale/trade and couple people said there was no point in switching to a CF hood cause the OEM is aluminum. Is the 2008 STi OEM hood aluminum or steel? can anybody give me a straight answer or proof would be awesome thanks?

My 06 is for sure aluminum. I'm pretty sure they switched to steel in 08 though. |

This is correct. I accidentally posted from IAG's account, but asked Rick from IAG and he confirmed that the 08's are steel. I just forgot to log into my account before posting
