alright, so over the summer ive got some big plans for my car. im planning on doing a big project on fixing up my paint and stuff. ive got 3 things im unsure about. 1: has anyone seen a talon painted with the hood, roof, and hatch all painted black? ive heard a few people talk about it but im curious if it looks good or not. 2: im having trouble deciding what color to paint it. red is definetly my favorite color and i love red talons, but i also love white talons. i think it would be awesome to paint it all black, but ive heard that takes a lot of upkeep. so what do you think? red white or black? 3: last but not least, ive been looking at this hood online for a long time. i really love the way it looks, but im surprised that ive never seen anyones car with it. in fact, the only place ive seen that hood is on the site. andys auto sport is there anything wrong with it that i dont know about it? any reason why nobody has it?


thanks for the help
 
i like the whole red and black scheem you mentioned i'm going for somthing along those lines, i like the stock black roof my car came with so i decided to leave it black i used a CF hood, mirrors and hatch and i'm going with gun metal for my paint color, as far as that hood goes it's awsome id deff get it :thumb: i've never seen it befor and it's deff somthing different. i think a 2 tone scheem would be the way to go i like your idea with the red but it's your call and either way i'm sure it will look great when it's finished :thumb:
 
oh and i'm sure there is nothing wrong with that hood, i bought my body kit and tail lights from andysautosport.com but i'm pretty sure that hood just came out :D
 
My car is all black, I definitely think it is the best looking, on the talons anyway. It is hard to take care off, good thing I work at a detail shop! :thumb: If you want something that is easier to take care of, I would for sure recommend white, it doesn't show very many imperfections and it looks pretty bad-ass with the black roof.
 
Any of those colors would look great, black is just a nightmare to keep clean. The 2 tone look is the best. My Laser is black and blue, and I plan to match the b pillar to the roof next year for the 2 tone look. Though I've seen 1g's all the same color that look great so it's a matter of personal preference.
 
I've always been a huge fan of black tops, no matter what the car. I think it would look awesome. As for why nobody buys that hood, probably because it's not wild enough for the ricers, and not clean enough for the racers. Just a thought.
