youd paint a $650 carbon fiber hood? If that was the case I woulda just went with a $200 fiberglass hood or kept it stock. And I only went with the evo style hood for the vents to release some hot air hopefully keeping the engine cool. like others mentioned, I think it looks awesome with the top, hood and ic to break it up… I also have a front lip thats gonna get installed that should look even better. It’s that EZ lip shit thats like rubber… Just got it so when i bottom out I wont scrape the bumper.
