Not sure if it matters, but I just checked out a Carbon Fiber hood from Anderson Composites. It looks to be the 2019 styling and it's compatible for 2016 - 2020.

I don't have any direct experience with Anderson Composites, so I can't vouch for the fitness.

To compare the design changes, I used Hambergers website to make these comparison between 16-18 and 19-20 SS hoods:

Well, looking at the overlay, the lines of the 2019-present SS hood look to converge, near the front, with the 2016-18 SS hood. It looks like, if someone were to put a 2019-present SS hood on a 2016-18 SS car, the [small] lines that are present on the front fascia should match up pretty close.

As mentioned previously, the only real difference in shape/fitment is the angled areas that flank the mid section - in the 2019-present hood, the angle is much more aggressive, which would uncover the window-cowl area a little more.

Okay, I'll bite.

Nope, 2016-2018s are the best. I've looked at tens and tens of 2016 to 2020 fronts and rears, hoods and spoilers, headlights and taillights—the pre-refresh design is the consistent result of a vision, while 2019 and 2020 exterior changes are hasty afterthoughts to try and move more cars among crowds different from the original target audience.

This doesn't mean 2019-2020s look bad, they're just a bit less awesome than the pre-refresh
