The problem is the car has hail damage and the stock hood costs more then aftermarket carbon. i’m thinking of get the carbon and painting the sides blue up to the crease in the hood. i’m not really feeling an all black hood

i emailed him last week - he’s going to call me tonight. I’m a little uneasy about throwing out a warranty on a 1st year model w/ the new engine but I want to see what he’s got in mind
