personally i dont like cf hoods. but your wheels match the hood, so it looks good on you car.
the lip looks very nice.

lip fitment looks poor. wheels are nice. drop the car a little more or get smaller wheels. dont get the hood.

the CF hood compliments your wheels and sunroof very nicely.

forget your hood, those stock side skirts need to be painted. Your car looks goofy.

there looks like a gap on the driver side...am i wrong? Also...i agree w/ the others...the wheels and the hood goes together, but for some reason, your car does look cleaner w/ the stock white hood..dont know why....also, look into getting your side skirts color matched next...it would look a lot nicer! Looks good btw tho...how was the fitment overall!?

i think all cars look better with stock hoods
i think cf hood make all car look like ****
it kills the good looking paint on a car

cf hood are only good for the weight saves but stock hoods that match the color of the car definatly looks much better
many ppl will probably didagree with me but i say loose the cf hood

Looks good. I like it with the carbon fiber hood better.

Although I'm no CF-*****, a nicely done CF hood / lip combo does it for me.

I voted stock hood, though; there's something about CF hoods on the USDM front that is very offputting. With a JDM front, the hood extends to the light, here it cuts off and makes it look extremely awkward.

I like the lip, but someone noteced the fitament on it.. you might want to check up on that. Everyone is saying to stay with your stock hood, but I'd paint your cf one and your side skirts. Thats just me though... you gotta do what you feel is right for your car.
