if I had a carbon fiber hood/trunk/lip, I would paint it to match my car.

If I was going to go with lightweight parts to paint, I'd just get fiberglass because it's lighter... Carbon Fiber is all about teh bLing0rz...

I dont mind too much how it looks but in the end would paint it. But if i have CF exterior parts i wouldnt feel stupid rockin it around town until i got time to take it to get painted.

I bought a cf hood for my integra when some ****tard ruined the stocker backing into me. I never got to put it on though...the top of my wastegate was sitting too high and would have made a nice crack in it. =(

I would never have bought it if I hadnt gotten the insurance money. I cant see spending $400-500 of my money for a non-performance part.
