i brought my car into the shop a few days ago to fix a few things, and should have it back in about a week... i have been contemplating for a while whether or not to install my hood that ive had laying around for a few years...i had it on my old car for a while but eventually took it off and went back to stock

if i do install it i would partially or fully paint it though...i really like a clean look and dont want it too flashy w/ the cf

anyway here are some pics of my car and 2 pics i found with similar angles....(jay and whokilled houghes if you would like me to remove the pics of your car let me know)

if someone could would they

A) color match the entire hood
B)color match the sides and leave the center cf

i am somewhat more interested in option A however am curious to see B as well

thanks in advance

ill attempt a PS soon, but i love that hood, if i could color match one i would too

btw, is CF lighter or something? or what is the point of it, and if its so much moeny why would anyone paint them?

it is lighter yes...like i said i dont want the car to be too flashy showing it off for when i have to park on the streets etc and draw the wrong attention plus imho color matched is a cleaner look not as agressive...i was actually going to get the fg one but i wound up getting the cf one cheaper when erebuni had a clearance sale

oh okay, so its not a big deal to paint CF then? well if your going to keep it atleast you know its carbonfiber

why dont they make cars out of carbon fiber then? it would be lighter thus better MPG!! lol

the way this country is. we should have had 100mpg over 10 years ago. anyways, ill PS it for you in study hall tomorrow and post it after school

Some very high end cars have a lot of carbon fiber on them stock, but it is really expensive.
