Default Should I put a CF on my Si

Here are a couple of pics of my ride, not really done with it yet. I have a vis CF lip coming but should I put a CF hood on.

Here you go to give you an idea. I was bored. Hope you like it.



I think a cf hood would look dope along with the lip.

I'd leave the lip blue. I like the c/f hoods myself. I'd leave the squirters off though.

thank you!, i'm sick of people either leaving body panels etc black, or actually going out of there way to paint them black so that they no longer match the rest of the car....

your car looks good as it is

I dont think he was asking if he should paint any part of his car black.

My opinion:
cf lip =
cf hood =

oh honda-tech...the place where you can go and ask for opinions from thousands of faceless people that will never see your car and don't even know who you are....do what you like not what they say. sorry that's my rant. and my opinion...well it doesn't matter what i say.

edit: love the wheels though

yeah.. i was gonna repaint them silver, but the graphite looked better for my curbed beat up rims.. my next steps include canards, cf hood, cf lip, cf gas door, and cf trunk lid.. in crowd ownz..

i was trying to buy an mr2 back in 2000 anyways.. but its cool.. u can throw me on the drifter rwd turbo bandwagon and misjudge me all you want.. its only cars and opinions..
