im thinking about painting my hood black but i dunno its a hard decision, look at my car pics and give me your opinion on this. thanks in advance.
 
I think you should paint your whole car that candy green looks a little girly if you are a girl then keep it i suppose but id do it a complete different color
 
I think its mostly up to you. BUT I think it would give it a much cleaner look if you ran the stock spoiler with the black hood. Unless its RWD, then I guess its cool..:thumb:
 
Honestly I wouldn't paint the hood. It kinda looks like your trying to pull off a carbon fiber hood but don't have the cash to buy a cf hood.
 
My dear god.. paint the whole car black and go wingless. That green is awful. :barf: The spoiler, well... wow... :ohdamn:
 
I'm not a fan of the green either. IMO neon green cars belong in the movies unless you have the power to back up the people that will make negative comments on it.

Painting the hood black will just make it (temperature) hotter to touch. If you want a black hood then get a CF hood.

Get a stock spoiler too :thumb:
 
Yeah definately loose the spoiler. Maybe something like this.......

yeah yeah yeah I need to wash it.
 
I think it looks fine, I would not mess with it. If you must, I would paint the entire car black.
 
I think it will only look worse if you paint the hood black. There's not really enough other black to make it look right. If I saw a car like yours with a black hood, I would just think they threw a random oem hood on from a black car and couldn't afford to repaint it or were too lazy to.
 
Agreed. forget the hood paint... you should change that black ragtop for one of these colours...

Red
Orange
Blue
Purple

Then paint the trim around the windshield to match as well. Pimp it with style. Turtle Power.
 
I just wanted to thank you blkgst97 for doing that quick photoshop because it made my day LOL.
 
What a bunch of a-holes... It's your car, you make whatever statement you want with it. However I don't think black paint is the answer. I would go with with a carbon fiber hood over black paint.
 
I do agree. Do not make any changes to your car because some people online tell you too. If you like it that is all that matters.
