paint all of those grills black man... too much bling it hurts the color contrast.

Re: (BrewerHatch)

I likes the CF hood..but its starting to get played out...i would go with a painted CF hood IMO

for weight conservation....or are you doing it for a bling factor?

no the ZC hood isnt 'vented' its just got a hump in it where the camgears sit.

and i say no on the CF hood... looks much cleaner without.

I'd give you my fiber images siR hood for dirt cheap if I had a regular siR hood. [no not for "bling" it's for my valve cover not to melt.. again..]
