keep it...and get a lip to match it

 

keep it just wash it...

 

the first pic is when i first got it 3 years ago.
i have an itr lip on it now, that bottom pic is from last summer.


wash it? it just got out of the paint booth in that bottom pic.

 

I'd put the stock hood and those painted stock wheels on it. The first pic looks better to me than the second; that color is tough to accessorize without disrupting the flow of the car.

oh oh oh.haha the dirt spots on the hood are a crack and fade marks, i got the hood for 30 bux off a friend who hit a deer with it, i put about 60 bux into it and fixed it.


and im painting the wheels almost a bronze color, its actually a mercedez benz color. doin a base/clear on the wheels.

 

Just paint the hood if you plan to change it.

 

i was thinkin of doin that, but im not diggin the hood pins anymore. i put them on this hood since it was wrecked, just for added comfort of the hood not hittin my windshield

 

orange green and red dont flow well, so yeah paint up those wheels

 

i think the CF looks good.

 

in that case you cant go wrong with a $90 cf hood

 

get a hatch.

 

paint it.......
