The EW-73B from the 18-135 STM just happens to fit the 10-18 STM perfectly. The only problem is the side petals show up in the photos at the sides at 10mm.

I trimmed down my extra EW-73B hood until the sides were no longer visible when you take a photo at 10mm. I started with a small drum sander in a Dremel tool and finished with some hand sanding to the final shape. The whole process took about 10 minutes. It is just the side "petals" that need to be trimmed down a bit as seen in these photos.
