Actually it will. you have to use washers and longer bolts to mount it because it sits lower than the lines of the fender. i am doin this as well i got a great deal on a CF hood and i was told exactly how to make it fit.

its 1/2" too long if i remember correctly. thus the washer trick in the rear, you need to raise it the half inch in the rear to get it to sit flush.

the hood doesn't not sit lower on the fender line. the hood is a tad longer. i know this for a fact.
