Ive seen people do that to there hoods.I saw it on a bmw in a car show movie.It looks hella tight.Right now its orginal until it becomes the new trend.The car looks orange in the sun.LOOKS HOT THOUGH!!
 
Do it! I don't see it very often but I love it. Besides, the clear that comes on the cf hoods is usually cheap. Go ahead and paint it and protect it.
 
Man, I want to do just that! Looks so good. Any idea how much it'd cost?
 
it doesn't look bad, but IMO, it looks like the hood got repainted and they did a horrible job matching colors.

since we all know it's CF, we understand the color difference. but if i saw someone driving down the road w/ that, i'd think they smashed their car and got a different colored hood.

up close & personal, i bet it's pretty nice though cuz you could still see the CF through the paint. just my opinion though, which usually doesn't count for much! :thumb:
