Default Blue Kandy on CF hood?

Hey, i just took my CF Hood and Trunk to the shop where my car is getting painted.
And the guy thats painting my car told me i should spray blue candy over it so it will give it a
blue carbon fiber affect. by the way the color of the car is gonna be cobalt blue candy.
So i was wondering your guy;s opinion should i spray blue candy over the CF hood or should i just leave it how it is.
Also has anyone done this before is so can i see some pictures. So let hear your opinions.

IMO, I like the look of CF on different colors . But wouldn't it look like it's "off-blue" if you paint the CF a different color than the rest of the body?

keep it cf........that way it'd be easier to sell the parts if you ever decided to.
Tell them to hurry up and get that **** done so it can hit the track

What do you need the bump for? You already have our opinions.
