Default Need opinion on new front

My R was recently in an accident. The whole front needs to be replaced so I am going with the JDM look. So far, I have the Mugen front bumper, metal fenders with clear side markers. I am debating between getting the mugen vented hood or just go with a VIS CF hood. Let me know what you guys think and also if you have any pic's, they will be very helpful. Thanks!!!

theres a cosmetic forum with lots of these pictures.

imo choose what you would like, not what the jdm bandwagon would like.

i like the jdm front, always have but never had an excuse to spend the money. i just don't know about the mugen vented hood. no one has it so i don't know what it would look like. the pic on kingmotorsports.com doesn't give enough detail on the hood.

I would just get the VIS hood (which i use , painted of course ) or use the oem jdm itr hood..the mugen hood is around 1400 dollars.

stock hood or paint the CF one. Too much at once end up too busy looking.

I am leaning towards the CF hood at moment. Now the question is whether or not to paint it? I have a black R. Anyone have pic's of an unpainted cf on a black teg?
